What Do You Do in Utah?

You could make this a solid summer vacation or a quick weekend trip. Either way, there is enough around Midway, Utah, that you're going to have a good time. There's lots of golf, fishing, hiking, boating and more. Here are just a few ideas of things to do. But Utah is an outdoor paradise, so feel free to take advantage of it while you're here.

Soldier Hollow Golf Course

1370 West Soldier Hollow Lane, Midway, UT 84049
, (435) 654-7442

Fly Fishing on the Provo River

Utah

This is some of the best fly fishing in Utah, and it's right by the venue. Book a guided tour or go into a fly shop, get some info and go on your own. Either way you'll probably catch a trout.

Park City Golf Course

1541 Thaynes Canyon Drive, Park City, UT 84060
, (435) 615-5800

Fish on the Jordanelle Reservoir

Utah

Fish Deer Creek Reservoir

Zion National Park

One of the best-looking national parks in America. It's a few hours south of Midway and Salt Lake City.

Dinosaur National Monument

11625 East 1500 South, Jensen, UT 84035
, (970) 374-3000

Want to touch dinosaur bones? Head east about two hours from Midway and you can do it. You can also see Native American rock art, wildlife and more.

Antelope Island

UT

Go for a hike, see wild bison or wade in the Great Salt Lake. This is about a half-hour north of Salt Lake City, so 1.5 hours from the venue. Frary Peak trail is a good hike that will take you about four hours. (There are hikes to overlooks that will take about 45 minutes and give you a good view of the lake and surrounding mountains). You can also wade in the lake and test your buoyancy.

Deer Valley Resort

2250 Deer Valley Drive South, Park City, UT 84060
, (435) 649-1000

Deer Valley Resort, in Park City, is probably the closest four-season resort to the venue. (The other is Sundance Resort). Wildflowers should still be blooming at this elevation in June.

Flaming Gorge Reservoir

Go catch the biggest trout of your life. The Flaming Gorge is one of our favorite places in Utah to go. It's beautiful and not too crowded. If you have the time, you can camp on the banks of the reservoir, fish from the bank or track down a boat and ski or fish. Watch out for the consistent afternoon thunderstorms.

Walk Historic Main Street Park City

501 Main Street, Park City, UT 84060

See historic Downtown Park City, the 1800s mining town turned tourist hot-spot. There are lots of restaurants, bars, shops, museums and more to check out.

Ride the tram at Snowbird

9385 S. Snowbird Center Dr., Snowbird, UT 84092
, (801) 933-2222

Ride the tram to the top of Utah's best ski resort, or just drive through Little Cottonwood Canyon and check out the base area at Snowbird.

Homestead Crater Mineral Dome

700 North Homestead Drive, Midway, UT 84049

10,000 years in the making, the Homestead Crater is a natural wonder that you can swim in. It's a geothermal warm spring under a 55-foot tall crater. It's so deep, they do scuba diving training in it. But you can just go for a dip (maybe after golf).

Monument Valley

Indn Route 42, Oljato-Monument Valley, AZ 84536
, (435) 727-5870

I mean you're this close, why not take the time to see where so many iconic Western movies were filmed? We'd probably only recommend this for anyone who's planning the Full Utah Tour, since it takes about 7 hours to get to from Midway. (But you'd see the best Utah has to offer on the way).

Red Butte Garden

300 Wakara Way, Salt Lake City, UT 84108

One of our favorite places in Salt Lake City. Red Butte Garden has several different styles of gardens (desert, rose, Japanese, etc.) to check out. It gives great views of Salt Lake City, the Great Salt Lake, the Salt Lake Valley, and you might run into a rattlesnake.

Living Room Hike

Living Room Trail, Salt Lake City, UT 84108

This is an iconic Salt Lake City hike, and it's not too hard. Get a great view of the city, lake and valley, plus get a little exercise and a little nature.

Where the magic happens.

Jordanelle Reservoir

515 Utah 319, Heber City, UT 84032
, (435) 649-9540

This is what we have in Utah. Not lakes, but reservoirs. Dammed up rivers. You can go swimming, hiking, boating or whatever you do by/in the water. And it's right by the venue.

Deer Creek Reservoir

UT 84032

This is the reservoir that's connected to the campground we reserved right next to the venue. Go rent a paddleboard or boat and do water stuff.
