What's special about Park
City Mountain Resort?
You
can't really go wrong with choosing any resort in Park City. The skiing
is great at each of them. We think what makes Park City Mountain Resort
special is its close proximity to town.
Park City Ski Resort has the exclusive Town Lift and Town Bridge. You
can ski or ride across the bridge and easily access all the shops,
restaurants, bars, galleries and more. Then you can just hop back on
the lift and ski back down to your condo or hotel room.
And for all you riders and skiers who enjoy doing
tricks, there are 4
terrain parks and 1
Superpipe to get your thrills on.
And don't forget the snowboard movie,
I Ride
Park City.
