What to Do in Park City
 


Home to many events of the 2002 Olympic Games, Park City is a summer paradise, and a cool respite from summer heat and humidity found elsewhere in August. There are over 300 miles of single track and paved trails throughout the area, in the mountains and along the flatter meadows. Due in large part to our status as a world-class ski resort town, one may enjoy many amenities such as five star dining and accommodations normally found in much larger cities.
