Hike

Draper City Park is located in the center of the Draper Town Center and the park is near the Porter Rockwell Trail and Willow Creek Trail so visitors can walk or jog around. There are trail heads for both the Porter Rockwell Trail and Willow Creek Trail just east of the park. There are two outdoor pavilions with lights, tables and two electrical outlets. The North Pavilion will seat approximately 240 people at 24 tables, while the South Pavilion will seat approximately 120 people at 12 tables and there's a fire pit near the South Pavilion. There are 4 Baseball/Softball fields, first come first serve (for occasional practice) except for during league play. No online reservations but can be reserved in person. For more information on reservations of baseball/softball or the pavilions, visit the Draper Parks and Recreation website. Restrooms are open all year except for the one near the South Pavilion; it's closed during the winter months. There are drinking fountains and playgrounds for children near both pavilions. For activities, there are volleyball court/pit but you have to bring your own poles, net, and ball and several basketball hoops for basketball.

The largest attraction of the park is the big willow tree in the center of the park, also known in Draper as the Tree of life. Every holiday season, visitors from all over gather around to see the tree of life as it illuminates with over 65,000 lights.This special event is free and the tree lighting schedule can be seen on the draper.ut website.
