PARK CITY

7 day guide to Park City

Day 1

Ease into your ski week with some groomers at Deer Valley. You won’t be fighting with any lift lines or crowds as the luxury ski resort caps the number of day passes sold each day to ensure a personalized ski experience.

Hit up Stein’s Way for full panoramic views of the valley floor. Ski into Stein Eriksen Lodge for a slice of history and their famous Stein’s Burger on the outside deck. 

At the end of the afternoon check out The Montage slopeside hotel for complimentary s’mores by the fire and a Veuve yurt for champagne indulgence before Fireside Dining at Deer Valley’s Empire Canyon Lodge. Loosen your belt with four courses of Swiss fare served up from five different giant stone fireplaces.

Day 2

Grab a coffee and a bagel from Atticus Books and Café on Main Street near the Town Lift then jump on board the downtown chairlift and make your way up hill to Park City Mountain’s 7300 acres of skiable terrain.

Ride the Quicksilver gondola over to the Canyons for more powder skiing, gladed runs and big bowls and a view from the lunch deck at Lookout Cabin next to the orange bubble heated chairlift.

Ski into the High West distillery at the end of the day on the Park City side of the mountain and try the locally distilled whiskey. 

Handle is your dining choice this evening. Park City’s favourite dining destination with seasonal produce, sharing plates and fun service.

Day 3

Now you’ve got your ski legs why not try six resorts in a day?  The Interconnect ski tour is a guided tour for advanced skiers across six resorts. You’ll ski from Deer Valley to Park City to Solitude, Brighton, Alta and Snowbird through linked backcountry trails.

Finish the day with a spa treatment to soothe those weary muscles. Try Sugati at Main & Sky downtown or the Remede Spa at the St Regis Deer Valley.

Have a night in by the fire and order room service, you’ve earned it.

Day 4

Give your legs a rest and your credit card a workout with some retail therapy. Start at the Tanger Outlet Mall for serious bargains from Nike, Vans, Abercrombie & Fitch, Calvin Klein, Gap, Michael Kors and friends. Then head over the road to Kimball Junction and check out artisan homeware and gift store Indigo Highway for hipster wanderlust and Joli for fun urban fashion.

Pile your bags into an Uber and head back towards Main Street, stopping at Exchange Consignment store for a fantasyland of fashion from now and then and a room filled with vintage cowboy boots.

Time for a refuel at Ritual Chocolate for a coffee and local chocolate delights before heading up Main Street to Panache, Cake, Flight and Prospect for fashion with some side stores filled with trinkets, art galleries and sporting stores along the way.

Finish up at No Names Saloon for a sundowner on the roof deck before dinner at The River Horse on Main wearing all your new swanky pants.

Day 5

Kick it up a notch with a full day cat skiing at Park City Powder Cats on a working cattle ranch. Don’t ask, just go, thank us later, it may be the best powder day of your life.  If you’re still standing at the end of the day then go lean on the bar at Oh Shucks, eat some peanuts and throw the shells on the floor, everyone else does. It’s part of the charm.

Day 6

Time for some serious adrenaline riding the luge at Utah Olympic Park.  Hang on tight to the bobsled pilot as you experience the official 2002 Olympic Sliding Track at speeds over 60mph with some notable g force.

If you prefer your sled at a more respectable speed then dog sledding behind a pack of huskies and alpine rescue dogs around the rolling hills and valleys near Deer Valley may be more your speed.

Then star spot the night away at Robert Redford’s Main Street restaurant, Zoom.
