Activities to Do With Kids This Spring in Park City

Any trip to Park City in the spring wouldn't be complete without some spring skiing. As soon as the days start getting longer, the slopes in Park City take on a festive feel, and the excitement over the spring weather is palpable. 

If you've got the kids with you, spring skiing is fantastic because you can enjoy the fun together, and the weather is almost always great. Although it's not uncommon to get a few big snowstorms in the spring, the temperatures are generally a bit warmer, which makes a big difference and helps kids stay happy on the mountain longer. Both Deer Valley Resort and Park City Mountain are scheduled to remain open until mid April. Check out how to find the best spring skiing conditions and time your day around the best snow.

While the endless sunny groomers are fantastic, events happening off the hill are the lifeblood of spring in Park City. From outdoor concerts to Park City Mountain's annual Pond Skim, art stroll and classes, culinary events, and everything in between, March and April are a great time to explore all there is to do in Park City off the slopes. 

Historic Main Street is located at the center of Historic Park City and is home to over 200 unique businesses. Visitors can shop among over 100 independent boutiques, dine at 50 one-of-a-kind restaurants, ride the trolly, and discover something to treasure from our lively artist community.

For those who prefer a different style of recreation, there are museums, galleries, historical tours, and even food tours. Preserving, protecting, and promoting Park City's history & heritage. Interactive exhibitions explore Park City's colorful mining and ski history. The award-winning Park City Museum is full of surprises in the heart of Park City's historic Old Town district.

Sitting at the west end of town, you can't miss the Utah Olympic Park (UOP) as you enter Kimball Junction via I-80. The two massive forest green ski jumps look like they're hovering over town, saying this is the place for winter sport! And it's true, being a host venue for the 2002 Winter Olympic Games and again for the upcoming 2034 Games, the UOP is a testament to Park City's legacy in athlete development and international cooperation. Stop by and you'll see that it's not all hard core skiers and sliders. The Alf Engen Ski and George S. Eccles Olympics museums are free and open to the public. And there are lots of interesting events and programming for everyone in the family!

Woodward Park City is Park City's action sports hub, but there is so much more to do than just skiing here. In addition to skiing and riding on pristine terrain parks, there is a massive tubing hill featuring seven unique lanes and 1200 feet of track to get your thrills. Inside, Woodward is a massive action sports complex with an indoor skatepark, ramps, foam pits, trampolines, and even an indoor parkour area. Everything here is designed to teach action sports in a safe environment, with trained instructors helping you along the way. To get into Woodward, you can get a full-day pass, sign up for an individual sports class, or even try out one of their camps. 

Park City Mountain's annual Spring Concert Series begins March 7th and goes through every Saturday through the end of the season! Every day features live music and special family aprés ski activities like s' mores and hanging out with the avalanche rescue dogs. It's a great way to cap a day of sunny spring skiing!

There are a few ways to slide in Park City—one of the best being on ice skates. On a sunny day, it's way fun to hit the Resort Center ice skating rink. It's steps from the slopes and the popular aprés spots like Pig Pen, Corner Store, and Baja Cantina. Off the mountain is the Park City Ice Arena, an indoor complex where you can free skate, play pickup hockey and stick and puck, or take a class. It's always worth it to hit the ice in Park City!
