Off-Mountain Activities
Utah's world famous snow is what brought you here, and our diverse attractions will keep you coming back. Bring the family closer together with a day trip to the Natural History Museum of Utah, Clark Planetarium, or Gorgoza Tubing Park.
A night on the town of fine-dining on Main Street Park City, bowling in style at Jupiter Bowl, or taking in an event at the Capitol Theatre may kindle romance.
History buff? Explore Park City's rich mining history, find your roots at the Family History Library, or roam around Utah Olympic Park. Jump on a snowmobile, heli-ski, cat ski, skydive indoors, or cheer on your favorite NBA team as they take on the Utah Jazz to elevate your trip. Don't forget to reward yourself afterward with a local craft beer.
Not only will Utah satisfy your appetite for adventure, but we also cater to foodies with great local cuisine and art connoisseurs with wonderful museums and galleries. Shopaholics will be thrilled with our newest upscale retail center City Creek and the outlet malls at Kimball Junction.
Be sure to sample some of the other great activities that Utah offers off the mountain. Check out the listings to find the perfect compliment to your ski vacation.
