The Mormon Pioneer National Heritage Area is teaming with the Utah Heritage Foundation to host a three-day bicycle tour of old barns in Sanpete and Sevier counties this June.

Susan Crook, the Southern & Central Representative for the Heritage Foundation, says historic barns tell the story of the people who built them.

Crook says the purpose of the tour is to create a guide to the historic barns during the tour by creating and updating a facebook page during the tour as well as creating an app.

The inaugural “Barnstorming Tour” is scheduled for June 11-13. Updates and registration will be available online at utahheritagefoundation.org. A Bus tour will also be offered in conjunction with the bicycle tour.
