Foothill Trail is a short, out-and-back mountain biking route in Utah, about 1.2 miles from the town of Pleasant Grove. The trail is just under 1.6 miles long, with a low point of 4,838 feet and a high of 4,915 feet, so the climb is a gentle 68 feet of elevation gain over the course of the ride. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to ride. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Pleasant Grove show May highs around 75°F and October highs around 68°F, while July averages climb to about 93°F. The trail sits close to two other mountain biking spots, Rose and Soft Rock, each about 0.1 mile away. American Fork Canyon, a climbing area, is about a mile off, and Timpooneke Campground is roughly 5.7 miles away for an overnight stay.
