Planning a Vacation to Park City

Park City, Utah is a beautiful and inviting vacation destination for travelers whether you’re someone with a passion for outdoor fun or you’re looking to relax in style. Situated in the heart of the Wasatch Mountains, Park City is a place where visitors can embrace the best of scenery, a rich arts and culture scene as well as outdoor recreation that’s world-class. Whether you’re in town for a few days or enjoying an extended stay, you’ll find there’s plenty to look forward to. The following are a few things to keep in mind when you’re ready to start planning a vacation to Park City.

Weather Expectation & What to Pack

If you’re planning a vacation to Park City between December and March, you’ll be right on time to make the most of ski season! This time of year, temperatures tend to linger in the 30s and 40s during the daytime and can drop to single digits at night. This means that whether your plans have you hitting the slopes in style or simply enjoying your surroundings at a more leisurely pace, you’ll want to be sure to pack plenty of winter layers and protective gear for time on the mountains. Skiers, snowboarders, and snowshoers alike can easily rent gear here as well if you don’t want to worry about packing equipment. If you are in town for the slope-side fun, expect an average of 300 to 400 inches of snow to fall in Park City annually.

Travelers who spend time here between March and May will be treated to the scenery that’s in full bloom and a city-center scene that’s just beginning to kick off the outdoor concert series for the year. Many travelers head this way in the springtime to enjoy wildlife photography, biking and bird watching. It’s also a great time of year to enjoy cozy cafés and exploring local restaurants with open air patios beginning to open for the season. You’ll still want to pack layers in the springtime as temperatures can fluctuate drastically between the daytime and evening hours.

In summer, Park City is in full tourist mode with plenty of visitors heading this way to make the most of the warm weather and easy access to outdoor fun including biking, fishing, golfing, hiking, and more. Be sure to pack plenty of sunscreen and your sunhat for adventures here this time of year.  Of course, fall is just as lovely for a Park City adventure with mild temperatures making their way back and the need to layer returning once more. Park City hosts beautiful fall foliage to admire and there are a variety of food festivals and Halloween events in the city this time of year too.

Activities to Try

When your Park City visit brings you here during the warmer months, you won’t want to miss out on exploring the beautiful mountain trails, putting your mountain biking skills to the test, and spending quality time at Utah Olympic Park with family and friends! Winter travelers will be treated to world-class ski slopes with ice skating, tubing, and snowshoeing equally popular activities to add to the itinerary. Year-round, Park City is a rime place to plan a vacation that includes a spa day or two as well as ample time checking out the local restaurant scene for palate-pleasing moments.
