Visiting the Ice Castles has become a family tradition that my kids look forward to every year. Even though we’re not traveling far from home, a visit to the Ice Castles feels like we have been transported to a far off magical world. If you’re visiting Park City in the winter, an evening visit to the Ice Castles is an absolute must-do activity. 

Although snowshoeing can look intimidating, what many people don’t understand is that it’s very similar to hiking - just at a slower pace. It’s the perfect winter activity with kids because you don’t need any special instructions or lessons to get started, and Park City is full of excellent trails that are perfect for snowshoeing in the winter. Although it’s easy to get started snowshoeing, it’s also a great workout and is bound to get your heart rate up and your blood pumping! We especially love that snowshoeing is a really family-friendly winter activity, and if you take along a baby carrier or sled, you can even take babies and toddlers snowshoeing with you as well. So if the snow’s getting deep and you’re looking for an easy way to get outside, grab a pair of snowshoes and hit the trail. 

Ski enthusiasts have been eagerly anticipating the reopening of ski resorts for the 2020-21 ski season. It's no surprise to anyone that this ski season will be different from anything we've ever experienced, but the good news is that resorts are planning to open back up. 

When most people think of outdoor swimming, warm summer days are the first thing that comes to mind.

The beauty of being in Park City is that there are so many amazing lakes nearby. We decided to go to Rockport State Park since it’s less crowded than Jordanelle or Deer Creek, but still has lots of great amenities.

There are few things more American than loading up your car with your favorite people, creating a playlist of great tunes, grabbing snacks, and hitting the open road. The possibilities seem endless until you realize that you have to narrow down a destination. If you're looking for a road trip destination with lots of outdoor recreation, lots of fantastic dining options, excellent lodging variety, great weather, and plenty of charm, you'll want to visit Park City! Luckily Park City, Utah is within a day's drive of most western US cities, so it is the perfect place to escape on vacation.
