A silver mining hub turned favored winter resort that’s absolutely fantastic for families in the summer, Park City is a great place for hiking with toddlers, teens and everyone in between thanks to easy trails around town and more challenging routes up in Deer Valley and beyond. Downtown has lots of stores to stock up on souvenir tee-shirts, outdoor gear and cowboy boots, plus a tasty ice cream shop, kid-friendly restaurants, the Park City Museum and the iconic chairlift. The Park Silly Sunday Market brings together craft and food vendors, live music, face painting and even a kid-sized rock climbing wall. There are also many excellent parks and playgrounds in the area.

Where To Stay: 

Montage Deer Valley: This luxurious Deer Valley resort offers families miles of hiking trails, indoor and outdoor pools, an on-site bowling alley, in-room “camping” amenities and the Paintbox children’s program. Kiddos can also collect the Montage merit badges. The property’s UPPAbaby rental program means you don’t have to pack a stroller.

Pendry Park City: This contemporary slopeside resort in Canyons Village starts the family fun upon arrival with stuffed animals up for grabs at check-in. Add to that an awesome kids club as well as two-bedroom residences with bunk rooms that are guaranteed to earn parents extra cool points.

Stein Eriksen Lodge: A high point for families staying at Stein Eriksen Lodge is the 3,500-square-foot entertainment area with pinball, video games and billiards. The enormous luxury suites with five bedrooms, full kitchens, living and dining areas and patios could easily be mistaken for private home rentals.
