Bicycling

Snowbird Resort. The resort is transformed into a playground in summer with rides and games for children of all ages, plus concerts, outdoor sports, al fresco dining, and more. Thrill-seekers appreciate the mountain coaster, the alpine slide, the zip line, and the mountain flyer, which resembles a roller coaster. You'll also find a climbing wall, trampoline, ropes course, inflatables, and more. There are ample options to access stunning hiking terrain and views, including the tram to 11,000-foot Hidden Peak. Mountain biking is another favorite summer activity. Other than a mile-long beginner-to-intermediate single-track trail, the steep, rocky terrain here is not recommended for novices, but experienced riders love exploring this extensive network of rugged trails. Bike rentals are available. Summer tram tickets cost $30, and all-day passes are a good way to save on multiple activities, especially for families. Hwy. 210, Snowbird, Utah, 84092. 801/933–2222; www.snowbird.com. Open mid-June–Oct..
