Salt Lake City Nature & Outdoor Tours

Great Salt Lake, Antelope Island, Golden Spike full-day tour

The Great Salt Lake created a natural fence for the oldest ranch in the west, keeping the livestock on Antelope Island. Today, the natural corral is home to one of the world’s largest wild herds of bison. The lake was also a barrier in connecting the nation, so the Transcontinental Railroad had to route above the lake where the golden spike was driven in 1869. On this tour, we'll experience the bison and the transcontinental railroad. We'll see America's Dead Sea and lots of wildlife.
