The city was originally called Salem Hills when formed in 1978, but was soon changed to Elk Ridge because of the large amounts of elk that wintered in the area. People love Elk Ridge because of the panoramic views of Utah Valley, the surrounding mountains and wildlife, the small town atmosphere, and the strong sense of community. Whether you come to play a round of golf at the neighboring Gladstan Golf Course, let the kids play at Shuler Park, hike the mountains in the abutting national forest, or just come for a visit, you’ll fall in love with Elk Ridge!
