Count on an Easy Journey to Park City
No matter what your point of origin might be, making your way to Park City, Utah is bound to be a breeze. The vast majority of visitors who aren’t driving in on their own choose to fly into Salt Lake International Airport. This sits just 35 minutes from Park City center and there are shuttle options on-site into town if you want to leave a vehicle out of the equation altogether. Of course, if your travel plans include a lot of exploring while you’re here, there are options to book a rental car at the airport as well. For travelers who are flying in on smaller, private planes, local airports like the TAC Airport, Herber Valley Airport, and the Atlantic Aviation Airport are all options to consider.
Knowing How to Get Around Once You Arrive
Customizing your options for getting around once you arrive in Park City is just as simple as getting here to begin with. While Park City is brimming over with amazing options for fun year-round, all of that exciting entertainment is packed into a relatively compact city space. That means that no matter where you’re staying, you’re within reach of great resources and in some cases, even walkable distances to the slopes in the wintertime.
For those who are heading this way when the fresh powder falls specifically to enjoy time skiing, it’s good to keep in mind that destinations like Deer Valley and Park City Mountain Resort have comprehensive shuttle services available to get you where you’re going. If you choose to book a ski-in ski-out vacation rental option, you won’t have to worry about transportation at all!
Further out areas in town like Kimball Junction or Canyons Village are a bit easier to maneuver with a rental car. The same goes for travelers who are staying near the center of town but plan on spending time outside city limits to enjoy rugged hikes, climbing, or other adventures in nature. If you’re exclusively focusing your fun on the center of Park City, you can always consider using the efficient public bus system that’s in place. Just download the Park City mobile bus app before you arrive and easily track routes and arrival times at the touch of a button.
A Picture-Perfect Place to Enjoy Time Year-Round
There are some activities that consistently draw visitors to Park City in all seasons with good reason. The terrain here showcases a combination of lush valleys and towering mountains, making it easy to find new places to explore every time you’re here. Winter travelers typically head this way to make the most of their time at Park City Mountain Resort or Deer Valley Resort respectively. Park City Mountain Resort is the largest of the two and is open for skiing and snowboarding. You’ll also enjoy access to lessons, gear rentals, and great lodges for warming up and enjoying delicious meals. Over at Deer Valley, Park City travelers can enjoy time in a ski-exclusive resort with limited lift passes to ensure space for everyone to ski freely and comfortably. This resort also hosts lessons on-site as well as quality gear rentals and lodges to explore. Beyond the slopes, Park City is a place for winter travelers to add options like snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, dog sledding, sleigh rides, and snowmobiling to their itineraries.
Spend Time Participating in Events in Every Season
Park City is a place that knows how to celebrate, and in every season, visitors will find options to enjoy local gatherings, events, and festivities. One of the most highly anticipated of them all is the annual Sundance Film Festival which happens in January. This creative experience takes over Main Street for around 10 days at a time and is a must for film buffs of all ages. Those with a heart for downhill competitions will want to plan their Park City stay for February when the FIS Freestyle Ski World Cup arrives. During this event, you’ll be treated to opportunities to see some of the world’s most talented freestyle skiers put their skills to work. It’s always a thrilling and inspiring experience for spectators and athletes alike.
As ski season begins to wind down in Park City in April, the fun is just beginning with Spring Gruv. This seasonal event includes pond skimming and slope-side activities meant to ring in the end of ski season in style. If you happen to miss Sundance, you can still make the most of cinema-focused fun in Park City in April when the Wasatch Film Festival arrives.
By June, Savor The Summit has come to Park City, giving visitors and locals alike a chance to enjoy fantastic food and beverage options along Main Street. August is a time for creative inspiration at the Kimball Arts Festival while September is celebrated with an event that sends more than 20 hot air balloons up at a time in an experience known as Autumn Aloft. Oktoberfest is a fantastic event to add to your itinerary in October while the annual Torchlight Parade at Deer Valley is a local tradition you won’t want to miss in December.
Delicious Eats to Enjoy While You’re Here
A trip to Park City is a dream come true for food enthusiasts who are looking to try as much local fare as possible. While it would be impossible to hit up every spot in town in one go, there are a few must-try destinations that are worth adding to your agenda every time you’re here.
Bartolo’s Park City is the perfect place to find yourself when you’re in the mood for an elegant setting and authentic Italian classics. Entrees like seasonal risotto and cioppino are always a delight and the global wine list at Bartolo’s Park City is equally impressive. From the chicken parmigiana to the Idaho trout almondine, this is a stop that will bring you back a time or two.
If you’re looking for a Restaurant Row stop featuring fantastic American cuisine during your Park City stay, Hearth and Hill is sure to thrill. Located at 1153 Center Drive, Hearth and Hill is a group-friendly eatery in town complete with spacious booths and a vibrant bar to enjoy in good company. The handcrafted cocktails are often a highlight here while main dish selections like ahi poke, curry farro, and steak frites are mouthwatering every time you order.
For some added spice to your culinary lineup, don’t overlook time well spent at Dos Olas Cantina. Located in Canyons Village, this is an eatery you can ski right into and enjoy flavorful and authentic Mexican cuisine. Whether you go for the barbacoa nachos, cauliflower con mole, or the custom tacos, you’ll want to be sure to pair it with a house margarita crafted with mezcal tequila.
Hidden Gem Stops to Discover
While many travelers head to Park City in the name of ski-focused fun, not everyone is aware that if you set your sights on time at Deer Valley Resort, there are options to participate in their Ski with a Champion program. If you’re looking to take your skills to the next level, there’s no better way to do so than alongside a pro. This program gives skiers a chance to take a lesson with an Olympian and go through the paces that lead to greatness. Afterward, head over to Alpine Distilling at 350 Main. Yes, this is a great destination no matter when you drop by, but those in the know come here to enjoy a cocktail and a gin-making experience. If you sign up for a gin-making experience on-site, you’ll enjoy concocting your own custom gin using an array of botanicals to choose from. Many patrons prefer to settle in and enjoy a four-course meal while they’re waiting for their gin to bask.
For travelers who are looking to get out and exercise during their Park City stay, there’s far more to do here than simply hit the hiking trails. While the routes that wind their way through and around the city are well worth exploring, you can feel free to switch things up in a unique way when you partner up with local companies like Park City Yoga Adventures. This one-of-a-kind enterprise offers locals and visitors access to innovative yoga experiences like stand-up paddleboard yoga at Homestead Crater. This geothermal spring sits within a crater dating back 10,000 years and is a perfect place to work on balance, relax, and even go for a soak or swim afterward. Park City Yoga Adventures also offers yoga silks courses where you can activate your body and mind at Blue Sky Ranch. You’ll find your inner Zen as you learn to navigate silk swatches and stretch, twist, and flow in style.
Must Try Outdoor Activities Beyond Skiing to Enjoy When the Snow Falls
Yes, the Park City ski resorts are idyllic but winter in this vacation destination offers up even more! If you’re looking for something new to add to the list, consider fat tire biking while you’re in town. If you’re someone who loves to explore on two wheels and you don’t want to give up the fun just because of some snow, this is your ideal solution. While you can certainly rent a specialized bike and explore the Wasatch Mountain Range on your own, the team over at White Pine Touring has custom-guided outings available to book as well. They also offer guided snowshoe outings when you want to slow things down and take time to enjoy wildlife watching along the way. For a more romantic take on the experience, consider booking one of their thrilling sunrise or full moon tours.
When you’re looking for a new view on it all, don’t forget that hot air balloon rides are offered in Park City year-round. There’s no reason not to book a flight and enjoy views over the snowy terrain from a bird’s eye vantage point.
Luxurious Stops Locals Love Too
When you want to enjoy a luxurious Park City stay like a local, there are places to be sure to check out. Wine lovers won’t want to miss a tasting session at the Stein Eriksen Lodge at Deer Valley Resort. Here, you have access to a talented sommelier working within Utah’s largest wine cellar! This impressive on-site collection showcases 1,500 selections across more than 18,000 bottles. It’s fair to say there’s no shortage of fantastic options that await.

Then, continue your extravagant meal with a main entree. We love the “beef and barley” options for meat eaters who want a grilled sirloin, barley risotto, greens, and seasonal vegetables.

Follow the paths of wood floors to spaces filled with light, warmth, and treasures awaiting to be revealed, including two living areas offering plush sofas, state-of-the-art televisions, and a fireplace for added warmth and romance.

The dining room, just like yours at home, offers multiple purposes in its windowed alcove that opens to the large patio just beyond the French door.
Play games with the family, perhaps some that line the shelves of the built-ins flanking each side of the fireplace, enjoy a loud and rambunctious family feast, or sit in the early morning quiet with a cup of coffee staring out at the Park City countryside, enjoying these moments of peace before the revelry with friends and/or family begins again!

Head Out on the Trail
A free and fun thing to do all year round is to go hiking in Park City, Utah. Although you have to pay for ski passes, snowboard lessons, rentals, and lift passes in the winter months to access the mountains, the summer is the best time to soak in the views, get in a great workout, and push yourself by taking full advantage of the free trials, hiking paths, and lakes surrounding Park City.
If you are in the mood for a short and easy/medium trail to get started on your vacation, then we recommend going on the Bloods Lake Trail. This easy 2.7-mile trail takes approximately 1 hour to 1 hour and 30 minutes, depending on your speed and pacing. We love this trail since it is popular all year long due to the pristine weather in the springtime, bright sunny days in the summer, changing leaves in the fall, and crisp breeze in the later months. Bring your kids because they will love the rock scrambling at the end and the adventure of climbing over and under rocks to reach the final destination!
For those who are intense trail runners, or cyclists or enjoy all-day hiking to get out of the hustle and bustle of the tourist traps, we recommend going on the Wasatch Crest Trail. This long and exciting trail provides expansive vows over nearby bright blue lakes, rolling hillsides, far-away peaks, and lush green pine forests. This hard trail takes around 8 hours and 30 minutes, so make sure you bring snacks, emergency gear, and layers during this trip. You can enjoy solitude and become one with nature as you travel on this long and picturesque trail during your stay in Park City.
Large groups, families, and solo travelers alike all love the Gambel Oak Loop if you are new to hiking or are traveling with kids. This 4-mile loop trail only takes around two hours to complete and offers a gentle incline and easy terrain for those who are interested in a fast and simple walk with their friends. You can even head here in the wintertime to bring your snowshoes and experience the winter wonderland! We love this trail for bringing kids and pups to check out the expensive views and the changing leaves on the trees.
Lastly, we love going on Jenny’s Trail if you only have time for one last hike before going back home. This iconic trail offers far-reaching views of the red rocks and provides a little bit of shade during the hot summer months. We love the changing terrain, ample parking, and mountain biking opportunities.
Head to the Montage
If you are out and about on a cold and brisk night, you might need some warming up. Grab your blanket and head to the Montage to make some smores!

Admire Utah Olympic Park
The Utah Olympic Park is an incredible sight to see that is a must-visit for all newbies in the area. Even if you go here just once to take pictures, it really is a sight for sore eyes. The winding road brings you to the top of the park, where you can watch the zip lining, ski jumping, tubing, and extreme sports as you sit outside and soak in the far-reaching views.
