Park City at a Glance
Park City Mountain is one of the largest ski resorts in the United States, created when the former Park City Mountain Resort and Canyons Resort were combined into one extensive ski area. The two are linked by the Quicksilver Gondola, allowing skiers to travel between both areas without leaving the mountain.
The Park City base area sits just above the historic downtown area, with the Town Lift providing direct access from Main Street. This makes it particularly convenient for guests who want to combine their time on the slopes with the town’s restaurants, bars, galleries and shops.
About Park City
Park City Mountain Resort spans over 7,300 acres, the largest ski area in the United States. With 330 runs, 43 lifts, and six terrain parks, it keeps skiers and riders busy from first tracks to last chair.
The mountain offers an impressive variety of skiing across its many peaks, bowls and wooded slopes. Beginners can make use of dedicated learning areas and gentle runs close to the main bases, while intermediate skiers have a huge choice of long groomed trails spread throughout the resort. More experienced visitors can explore steeper bowls, mogul fields, gladed terrain and challenging descents.

Park City Town
Downtown Park City is centred around historic Main Street, where colourful Victorian buildings, independent shops, galleries and restaurants reflect the town’s silver-mining past. The area is compact and easy to explore on foot, with everything from relaxed cafés and lively après-ski bars to more refined dining options found within a few blocks. No Name Saloon is one of its best-known spots, offering a casual atmosphere and its famous buffalo burgers.
Just off Main Street, High West Distillery is another Park City institution, serving its own whiskey alongside a menu of hearty mountain dishes. Throughout the year, downtown also hosts festivals, concerts and local events, while the Town Lift provides direct access to the slopes during winter.
Canyons Village
Canyons Village is a lively mountain base with great access to the slopes, as well as restaurants and resort amenities. The area features an impressive selection of accommodation, from comfortable condos and spacious private homes to luxurious on-mountain residences with ski-in/ski-out access.
The area is served by the Orange Bubble Express, the country’s first heated chairlift with a protective cover. It provides a warmer and more comfortable journey up the mountain on colder days, while the village’s location makes it an especially practical choice for families and groups looking to stay close to the lifts.
