Trail Overview

Powerline-Durfees Road is a semi-well-maintained 1.1-mile point-to-point section of the overall Powerline Road and is rated 2 of 10. Located within Sevier County, this section of the trail is part of the Paiute Side Trail #42 and connects with other trails within the Paiute Trail System. This year-round trail is open for use by licensed street-legal vehicles, motorcycles, ATVs, bicycles, equestrians, and hikers. The trail surface is hard-packed dirt, generally wide enough for two-way traffic. The road appears to be maintained on a semi-regular basis. There are no major obstacles on the trail. The trail provides an offroad path from Burrville (Bear Valley Road) in the south all the way to Glenwood and Richfield in the north. Many of the trails listed as No Motorized Use on the map have been converted to part of the Paiute Trail System, so it is advisable to check with local authorities on what trails may be open. Cell phone service is intermittent. Fuel options are limited, with most major brand stations available in Richfield along Interstate 70. Trailer parking is available in a lot at the north end of Bear Valley Road (across State Route 24). Limited parking for vehicles with trailers can be found at the intersection of Bell Road and Utah Route 119.
