Why go

One of the largest ski resorts in the US, reached from Old Town by the Town Lift and linked to Canyons Village by gondola.

It is one of 9 curated places we feature in Park City, alongside 3 activities, 2 bars & cafés and 2 sights. 2 more of our picks sit within about half a mile in a straight line, so it pairs easily with High West Saloon and Main Street. Set aside most of a day (about 6 hours) here; it works best as the anchor of a day rather than a quick stop.
