The mountain vacation of a lifetime doesn’t just happen; it requires careful planning and just the right destination. Park City, Utah has exactly what you need.

We have three world-class winter resorts: Deer Valley Resort, The Canyons Resort and Park City Mountain Resort, within minutes of each other and featuring over 9,000 acres of skiable terrain and 350 annual inches of the “Greatest Snow on Earth.” Add to these appealing statistics a silver-mining town brimming with Park City history and charm – not to mention over 100 restaurants and bars, dozens of shops and galleries and enough events, live concerts and performing arts to put most cities to shame. And all of it is just 35 minutes via interstate highway from Salt Lake City International Airport.

Whoever said you can’t please all the people all the time has never spent a summer in Park City, Utah. The nice thing about having three year-round mountain resorts is all the added activities for summer visitors. Here the skies are perpetually blue, the foothills are covered with wildflowers, and the cool mountain breezes make summer temperatures enjoyable.

We’ve got summer mountain activities for everyone, whether your idea of active is sipping drinks on the patio at one of our over 100 restaurants and bars or exploring some of our 400 miles of trails on foot or by bike. If you’re into thrills, try out the summertime version of the bobsled at Utah Olympic Park. Challenge yourself to alpine golf at one of several area courses. Treat yourself to our cultural side with some of the most entertaining arts and music festivals at any elevation.

We could go on by mentioning the many spas, fly-fishing outfitters, shopping and galleries, but we think you’ll agree – if Park City can’t please everyone in your group, nowhere can.
