About travelling from Salt Lake City, UT to Park City, UT
Park City stands out as one of the most conveniently located ski destinations in the U.S., located roughly 35 minutes from Salt Lake City Airport. Two world-class resorts sit right on its doorstep in Park City Mountain and Deer Valley. The town’s history stretches back to its boom days as a silver-mining community, and the installation of early ski lifts in the 1970s marked the turning point toward becoming America’s largest ski resort.
Park City Mountain’s size means endless variety: smooth groomers, progression-friendly beginner areas, gladed runs, bowls, and some slackcountry terrain for the more adventurous and advanced. With nearly 350 trails and 40 lifts, it’s ideal for groups with mixed abilities. Snowfall averages around 300 inches per year, delivering trademark Utah powder.
Park City’s historic charm is a major part of the experience. Main Street, directly linked to the slopes, is lined with restored heritage buildings filled with bars, cafés, galleries, shops, and restaurants. Après-ski options range from the lively The Spur Bar & Grill and Wasatch Brew Pub to relaxed spots like Corner Store Pub & Grill, while upscale dining can be found at Yuki Yama or Firewood. It’s a real community with depth and personality.
Summer in Park City is just as active, offering a bike park, chairlift-accessed hiking, golf courses, fly fishing, and warm-weather festivals. The Wasatch Mountains offer accessible adventure for all.
