Utah Olympic Park

Utah Olympic Park

Sometimes overlooked, The Utah Olympic Park is a really fun place for kids over the age of 5. Everyone will like watching the aerial freestyle skiers catch big air and land in a swimming pool. During summer months, try a variety or rides like the zip line, climbing wall, and alpine slide. The bobsled and skeleton are the most adventuresome options, 60+ mph. The ropes course has several levels so it works well for kids and adults. Oh, and if you’re into museums or info about the Olympics, there’s a free venue with great exhibits.  And winter activities are even more exciting.  Inside of the visitors center is a free museum that details the history of skiing in the area, including some old ski fashions that will have your kids laughing out loud.  If your kids are older and love new challenges, sign them up for a ride down the bobsled track.
