Car Travel in Wasatch Range with Park City

Car Travel

More Travel Tips »

Highway travel around the region is quick and easy. The major routes in the area include I-80, which runs from Salt Lake City to Park City; and U.S. 40/189, which connects Park City to Heber City and Provo. Along larger highways, roadside stops with rest rooms, fast-food restaurants, and sundries stores are well spaced. Scenic routes and lookout points are clearly marked, enabling you to slow down and pull over to take in the views. Off the main highways, roads range from well-paved multilane blacktop routes to barely graveled backcountry trails. Watch out for wildlife on the highways. In rural and resort towns, expect gas prices to be considerably higher than in large cities.
