Just 35 minutes from Utah's Salt Lake City international airport, the ski town of Park City www.visitparkcity.com ranks among the biggest and best in North America, famed for the copious amounts of fluffy powder snow that falls on its slopes each winter.
Park City's skiing is on three world class ski areas - Canyons Resort, Deer Valley and Park City Mountain Resort, all easily accessible with Park City's free and frequent shuttle bus service. Recently, the owners of Canyons Resort bought Park City Mountain Resort, and from ski season 2015/16, the two mountains will be connected by a new lift, at a stroke creating the biggest ski area in the USA.
Away from the ski runs the buzzing town scores highly in many other ways. For example, Park City is home to the High West whiskey distillery and saloon which is unique on two counts – its the only whiskey distillery in a ski resort and its also the only 'ski to the door' whiskey distillery in a ski resort! High West is found in Park City's Historic District, the thriving heart of town with its origins in the silver mining boom of the 19th century. Today the area is home to a wide choice of bars, restaurants, nightlife and shopping.
Several UK ski tour operators feature Park City and a list of them can be found on the Visit Park City website www.visitparkcity.com/
