Skiing/Snowboarding
Park City offers three large resorts for skiing and snowboarding: the Canyons, Park City Mountain Resort and Deer Valley. You'll find dry Utah powder and terrain suited for all abilities and tastes. Deer Valley allows only skiing, but Park City offers one of the best park systems in the country for snowboarders and freestyle skiers.
Utah Olympic Park
Having hosted the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympics, Park City remains home to the Utah Olympic Park. Here you can watch athletes train; visit the Alf Engen Ski Museum, Intermountain Ski Hall of Fame and 2002 Eccles Winter Olympic Museum; participate in clinics; or even try your hand at bobsledding. Though the park may have been built on winter activities, it remains an alluring destination in the summer, with a 435-foot-drop zip line and alpine slide.
Shopping/Dining
Anyone would work up an appetite spending the day outdoors and participating in all the recreation that Park City has to offer. Downtown you'll find more than 100 restaurants with all different types of cuisine. There's also Main Street-style shopping and nightlife waiting to greet you. A free bus system and plenty of taxis ensure that you can have an extra drink without worrying about a drive back to the hotel.
Summer Activities

Its most noteworthy event of the year is the Sundance Film Festival in January. Another big winter event is the World Superpipe Championships.
