Park City Destination Guide
For avid outdoorsmen, Park City is a must-visit mountain destination replete with outside activities: mountain biking, horseback riding, hiking, skiing… you name it, Park City has it. Situated east of Salt Lake City, the year-round destination is one of the most approachable places to visit — just a 35-minute drive from Salt Lake City International Airport, visitors can hop off the plane and be on Park City Mountain Resort’s pristine snow-packed slopes within a remarkably short time frame. Read below to find out more about the best boutique stays, upscale restaurants, wild west watering holes, and sites to visit in this sought-after Mountain West city.
Where to Stay:
Ideally located within the heart of Canyon’s Village, Lift Park City is a luxurious mountain lodge residence that combines the luxe amenities of a boutique hotel with the intimacy of staying in your own home. The 61 one-to-five-bedroom penthouses are equipped with sleek contemporary alpine design: oak wood flooring, plush furnishings, in-room fireplaces, expansive kitchens, and oversized windows fill spaces with adequate natural light and allow guests to take in sweeping mountain views. Quickly get on and off the chairlift with help from the very friendly on-site ski concierge.
Where to Eat:
For an ambiance that imbues the perfect après chic vibe, head to the KITA at Pendry Park City. This modern restaurant serves Japanese grill-style fare spotlighting fresh sushi, Japanese steakhouse favorites, and delicious ramen bowls along with a curtailed sake menu to pair with every meal.
Where to Drink:
Set right off the lobby of the Pendry Park City, Après Pendry is a sleek lobby lounge located right off the Canyon’s Village chair lift — an easily accessible sipping spot. Snuggle up to the dimly lit cocktail bar surrounded by contemporary furnishings and roaring fireplaces. (We’re intrigued by the Hannah’s Choice libation comprising Empress Gin, St Germain, lemon, and mint.)
Where to Ski:
Just a 35-mile drive from the Salt Lake City Airport, Park City Mountain is an iconic ski resort known for its expansive slopes and snow-covered peaks. Connecting two mountains — Canyon’s Village and Park City — this is the largest ski resort in America replete with lively restaurants and pubs at the mountain’s base.
Where to Visit:
Book a Spa Treatment
After a long day of skiing, or simply if you just want to channel your most relaxed self, booking a spa treatment at the Rock Resorts Spa will ensure the utmost tranquility.
