Logan Travel Information
Logan is a very attractive, small city situated in the verdant Cache
Valley.
The Bear River Mountains (really the northernmost extension of the
Wasatch Range)
rise just east of town while the exceptionally steep Wellsville
Mountains provide
a pretty backdrop to the Cache Valley farmlands to the west. Logan
boasts a
handsome downtown area and pretty tree lined residential
neighborhoods. Its
architectural focal point is the gleaming Logan Temple set on a hill
near the
center of town. Utah State University, with its 20,000 students,
adds youthful
energy to the pleasant rural town. Unlike cities of the Wasatch
Front (Ogden,
Salt Lake City, Provo) that share a sprawling urban area, Logan
benefits from
being a bit isolated, and is by any measure a very inviting place.
The mountains surrounding Logan provide good opportunities for
hiking, biking,
fishing and camping, and in winter downhill and cross-country
skiing. Logan
has plenty of motels and restaurants and all the other shops and
services you'd
expect in a moderate-sized city. View

Logan is located on Hwy 89, about 80 miles north of Salt Lake City
and 45 miles
north of Ogden.
