1. Mirror Lake
Go here for an easy, 35-mile trail that leads up to the peak of Bald Mountain. There are opportunities for off-roading, but they should be reserved only for more advanced snowmobilers, as many of these areas go over frozen lakes, which may present a hazard during various times of the year.

3. Mill Hollow
This complex located near Heber City interconnects with both the Strawberry and Mirror Lake complexes and provides a great experience for riders of all levels.

5. Cedar Mountain
For stunning scenery and well-marked trails, visit the Cedar Breaks, Duck Creek, and Brian Hills trail, just east of Cedar City.
