Top Reasons to Go to Park City

Outdoor fun: Regardless of the season, Park City is the epicenter of mountain adventure. You come here to play, not to watch, whether your speed is a hot-air balloon float or an 80 mph bobsled run.

Two top-tier resorts: No place in North America has two world-class and distinct resorts so close to one another, not to mention as expansive, dynamic, luxurious, and unique as Deer Valley and Park City Mountain Resort, and it's not only skiing on offer—the resorts provide year-round adventures and hospitality.

Olympic spirit: This town seems to contain more Olympians per capita than any town in the country, if not the world; nearly every U.S. winter Olympian trains in Park City at some point every four years.

Old Town Park City: First laid out by silver miners in the late 1800s, Park City’s historic Main Street has dozens of fine restaurants, bars, galleries, and boutiques. Always vibrant, its hub is especially lively during big events like the Sundance Film Festival and Kimball Arts Festival.

Sundance Resort: At the base of Mount Timpanogos, Robert Redford’s intimate resort pays homage to art and nature, with artists in residence creating works before your eyes, and the chance to bond with Mother Nature. You can ski here, too, but the calendar of performances and speakers is the biggest attraction.
