Things to do With Kids ~ Playgroup Park City Utah
Park City is a great place to vacation with your kids. Besides the excellent skiing opportunities, there are a variety of other activities that are great fun for the whole family.
Gorgoza Park
Kids love tubing! This former locals’ ski hill has been turned into a tubing park run by Park City Mountain Resort. A lift takes you to the top of the hill where you can choose from seven different lanes to ride down. This is a great activity the whole family can enjoy, day or night. Also popular are the mini-snowmobiles, designed specifically for kids. They’ll have a blast as they race around the oval course for nine laps of fun!
Ski School
Ski School is a great way for kids to improve their skiing and make new friends at the same time. It also takes some pressure off the parents and puts their minds at ease knowing their children are getting professional ski training. Ski school is offered at all three mountains in the Park City area.
Snowshoeing
Snowshoes are easy to use because they simply attach to your hiking boots with straps and you are set to go walking around in the snow for hours of fun. Recommended for ages 5 and up.
