Often, when people think of fabulous ski vacations or summertime getaways filled with scenic alpine beauty, they consider the regular cast of characters but overlook a perfectly pleasing choice. Utah, particularly Park City, is one of the best places to enjoy winter sports (just ask the Olympians of the world) and when the weather warms up, you’ll find no sweeter sights than those provided while hiking through the state parks or trotting through the lush valleys on horseback.Park City is nearly overflowing with vacation possibilities in a way that will satisfy travelers with all kinds of needs and interests. Ski lovers will enjoy the 350 inches of snow that falls per year, as well as the 3,300 skiable acres. Nothing compares to an early morning thrill ride down the tallest mountain you can find, if that’s your style, that is.

Visitors are welcomed to watch the experts in action, tour the two museums on the premises, or even hop into a bobsled and see what it feels like to experience 4G’s at 80 miles an hour. Ski Jumping, Bobsled, and Skeleton competitions continue to be held here, so schedule your trip accordingly if you’re interested to see the world’s finest athletes in these somewhat unheralded events.If you’re more of a summer traveler, then be sure that your days will be just as jam-packed. Schedule an excursion with a local tour operation, and you could find yourself scaling the Uinta mountains, rafting the white water rapids of Weber river, or climbing aboard a 100 year old train for a day of sightseeing, old-fashioned dining, and entertainment.
