Active community close to the mountains
Mount Ogden sits at the base of its namesake mountain. The community is comprised of numerous parks and a vast network of trails. “The neighborhood has always been highly desired since it’s right up against the mountain,” says Residential Real Estate Specialist Robert Matasic with PPC Realty, who has almost 20 years of experience and lives in Mount Ogden. “The beauty is spectacular, with all the eclectic homes and the mature landscape.”

Mountain trails and community parks
Mount Ogden’s location along the Wasatch Mountains creates ample opportunities for outdoor recreation. The neighborhood’s entire eastern area is taken up by Mt. Ogden Park and its expansive grassy fields. There’s a playground, a picnic table pavilion for relaxing and pickleball courts. “On a weekend in the summertime, the soccer fields are loaded with people,” Matasic says. “The park is a central place where people like to congregate.” Additionally, the Mount Ogden Golf Course is a public, 18-gole course sprawled throughout the green space. Farther south is Marquardt Park, which has a playground and multiple walking trails. In addition to the parks, the neighborhood has a myriad of connecting trails in the east. The 27th Street Trailhead travels into Taylor Canyon, while the 36th Street Trailhead follows the Strongs Canyon. The 29th Street Trailhead leads to Waterfall Canyon, which has a towering cascade. “It’s amazing to see the amount of people that come through for the trails,” says Matasic. “There are several bridges and streams along them, and a waterfall.” The Snowbasin Resort sits at the top of the mountain, which is about a 20-mile drive. As one of the oldest operating ski areas in the country, Snowbasin has over 20 trails and several gondolas that take visitors to them.
