Just an hour away from Get Away Today’s South Ogden office, is Park City, Utah, destination to skiers, shoppers and stars alike. Known by “outsiders” for its incredible ski resorts and the Sundance Film Festival, Park City is also a popular summer destination for Utah residents. While winter months are swarming with visitors from around the world, summer is a different story, which means great room rates at some of the most sought after hotels and resorts. Here is our top ten list of summer activities you can do at this mountain retreat:

Attend Concerts: Deer Valley has hosted a wide range of performers, especially during the Deer Valley Musical Festival, which is the summer home of the Utah Symphony and Utah Opera.

Go Outside: Hiking, biking, and horseback riding are just some of the many outdoor activities popular at Park City. The many trails allow endless opportunities for visitors to connect with nature. You can also experience an alpine coaster, alpine slide, zip rider, chairlift rides, miniature golf and other outdoor activities at the Park City Mountain Resort.

Shop: The Tanger Outlets are possibly the most popular destination for deal seekers in Park City. Here you’ll find over 60 name brand outlets and stores like Nike, Ann Taylor, Guess, Gap, Tommy Bahama, and so much more. You can literally shop-till-you-drop in Park City.

Snorkel & Scuba: It may seem strange, but you can snorkel and scuba dive just 20 minutes from Park City at the Crater at the Homestead Resort. This natural crater made of limestone deposits houses a crystal clear, 90º – 96º mineral bath. It is the only warm water scuba destination in the continental U.S. and thus attracts those looking to certify at warm temps.

Olympic Games: OK, you can’t actually compete in the Olympics, but you can see where many of the 2002 Winter Olympic Games were held. Olympic athletes still train here, and you can watch them in action and tour the entire park. For those seeking some adventure of their own, you can ride the zip-line, alpine slide, and even a bobsled!

Golf: With seven public and six private golf courses within 30 minutes of downtown, Park City is a golfer’s paradise. Golf here is especially nice in hot summer months because Park City is an average of 10 degrees cooler than its neighbor to the west, Salt Lake City.

Stroll Art Galleries: The quaint Main Street of downtown Park City is lined with art galleries representing local and diverse artists of all mediums. Whether you’re looking for a piece for your home or collection or if you just appreciate art, you are sure to be amazed by these breathtaking collections.

Dine: One unique thing about Park City is you’ll have a tough time finding chain restaurants. While you can of course grab a quick bite at popular fast food places, you’ll be hard pressed to find many sit-down chains. That doesn’t mean you don’t have options. In fact, you have your choice of over 100 unique and delicious restaurants ranging from super casual to incredibly high-end.

Relax: Park City houses a plethora of places to relax, including some of the most exclusive and elite spa retreats in the state. Massage, body wraps, facials, manicures, pedicures and other treatments will leave you relaxed and renewed.

Get Wet: Even though its primarily a ski town, most of the hotels and condo complexes in Park City have great pools, some even with indoor/outdoor pools. Water lovers are also about 30 minutes away from the Jordanelle Reservoir, perfect for water skiing, canoeing, jet skiing, and more.
