About the Business
Bonneville State Park, located in Wendover, Utah, United States, is a unique and iconic park known for its vast salt flats. The salt flats cover over 30,000 acres and are a remnant of Lake Bonneville, which existed thousands of years ago. The park is managed by the Bureau of Land Management and is designated as a Special Recreation Management Area.
Visitors to Bonneville State Park can enjoy a variety of recreational activities such as land speed racing, photography, and running races. However, it is important to note that motor vehicle use is limited during certain times of the year when the salt flats are wet or have standing water.
The park is also home to the Bonneville Salt Flats Special Recreation Management Area, where special events and commercial activities are held to protect the natural resources of the area. Additionally, efforts are being made to replenish salt to the salt flats through the Salt Laydown Project.
With its rich history in land speed racing and its unique natural landscape, Bonneville State Park is a must-visit destination for tourists and outdoor enthusiasts. Be sure to follow all rules and regulations when visiting the park to help preserve this one-of-a-kind natural wonder.
Reviews
"The area was flooded, so we could not drive on the Salt Flats. However, the water looked like a lake that served as a reflecting pond for the gorgeous mountains in the background. The views were stunning. The area with the buildings was really run-down. The bathrooms looked like they had been locked for many years. The vending machines looked like they had been empty for many years too. It is a shame that the state does not take care of this area. We were even expecting a museum or a gift shop that did not exist. This could be a tourist destination if the state would invest a little money into it."
"It's cool, but not as cool as I hoped. There is a relatively small piece on the northern viewpoint (westbound) where flats are truly white and feel like expand to horizon. On the way there - not all shine - somewhere a bit dirty, many dirty wheel tracks. Note that one can not (at least easily) cross from north to south (eastbound) viewpoint. Southern does not have such good views. When we were there - toilets where not working, so make sure to have water to wash your feet after salt. Did not understand where they do speed records. First picture is there, second - on the way, last - from the mountain in Wendover"
"The largest (and probably the only) walkable field of salt in the world. Note, if you are traveling from Wendover - you MUST take turn to Bonneville Salt Flats Raceway. The eastbound Rest Area stop is not super spectacular and does NOT have access to the salt field. Getting to the north side of the road will add another hour to your trip (but that is still worth it)."
"The salt flats is such a cool place to check out! The pavement ends in the middle of the salt flats and you have the option to drive your vehicle onto them and go farther out. Took my jeep out and had a blast. Not many other people there when I went."
"Amazing place to experience!! I enjoyed few hours walking running with my dog on our way to Salt Lake City. It’s really cool place to take nice pictures take in the scenery. Remember don’t get salty"
