Utah Olympic Park
Kids can put their Olympic dreams in motion at Utah Olympic Park – legendary site of the 2002 Winter Olympics (AKA Salt Lake 2002)! Utah Olympic Park bustles with year-round activities for all ages – ranging from extreme tubing, alpine slides, ziplining and ropes courses in the summer to public skating and cross-country skiing in the winter. Schedule a tour of this storied facility and show your kids the legendary sites where winter sports history came alive in the bobsled, skeleton, luge and Nordic combined events during the XIX Olympic Winter Games.
Ziplining, Slides & Outdoor Coasters
There’s no shortage of exhilarating outdoor recreational activities for kids of all ages surrounding our Park City Utah hotel during the summer! Enjoy the ride of your life on the Mountain Coaster (Utah’s longest coaster), which features more than a mile of thrilling loops and curves; race down the luge-like Alpine Slide, at 3,000 feet one of the world’s longest slides; or soar high above the tree tops on a ZipRider adventure at speeds reaching up to 45 miles per hour.
Art Classes
Are your kids looking for some rainy day fun or just a break from the ski slopes? Sign them up for a Park City art class where they can channel their inner Van Gogh (or Dr. Seuss for that matter!) and create some artistic masterpieces in a variety of diverse mediums such as drawing, painting, metals, glass, mixed media, pottery, photography and more. For example, Park City’s hub for art expression, the Kimball Arts Center offers many programs for kids such as its immensely popular “Artful Afternoons” on Fridays between 1 PM and 3:30 PM.
Train Rides
Just a 20-minute drive south of our Park City Utah hotel lies the scenic Heber Valley (AKA “Utah’s Alps”), which is home to the storied Heber Valley Historic Railroad, which features 16 miles of tracks and amazing excursions to some of the Beehive State’s most spectacular scenery, including the Wasatch Mountains and Provo Canyon. Kids will love a trip aboard this 100-year-old steam train known as “The Heber Creeper.” Special kid-friendly railroad events throughout the year include “Kids Train Days” and “Wild West Days.”
