Perhaps one of the most popular activities to enjoy in Park City over New Year’s is time well spent on the slopes. When winter rolls around, visitors from near and far know Park City is home to world-class ski slopes just waiting to be discovered. A New Year’s trip is the perfect time to grab your skis or snowboard and take advantage of the fresh powder that’s sure to fall.

Beyond the slopes, New Year’s in Park City is a great time to rent a pair of snowshoes and hit the trails that are easy to access from the city center. The team over at Cole Sport is more than happy to provide you with quality snowshoe rentals for as little as $18 a day when you’re excited to get out and explore the snowy terrain at your own preferred pace. You can also choose to book a guided snowshoeing experience with White Pine Touring if you prefer a more insightful outing with a professional to lead the way to amazing experiences.

Yet another unique way to explore the great outdoors this New Year’s in Park City is to book a dog sledding ride with the team over at the Luna Lobos. This company operates out of the Thousand Peaks Ranch and has a team of Huskies ready and waiting to help you make the most of a mushing experience.
