The Payson Area Trails System (PATS) is an in-progress, interconnecting trail system utilizing detached pathways, existing sidewalks, and bike lanes in Payson to form an interior trail network.  These interior trails will connect to specific Forest Service roads and trails on Payson’s periphery providing a more rustic trail-user experience.  

Keep in mind that trails outlined in Blue are projected trails and are not ready for use. Trails outlined in Green are existing trails and are ready for use.  Red marks the sidewalks that are available.

For more information on each section of the trail roll your mouse over the yellow dot and click.
