There are a handful of Canyons activities based at the resort itself, with many more things to do on offer in the greater Park City area. For the latter, some of the activity operators provide a complimentary shuttle service.
Cat Skiing
Park City Powder Cats offers cat skiing from the Thousand Peaks Ranch (a 30-40 minute drive from Park City). Snowcat skiing with
Park City Powder Cats is a fantastic way to ride virgin snow without parting with as much cash. We’ve been out with Park City Powder Cats and were impressed with the terrain on offer.
Other Ski Tours
Cross country skiing is available with White Pine Touring, The Homestead Resort and Soldier Hollow.
Leisure and Family Activities
Snowshoeing is available on lots of trails that weave around the Canyons ski area. Snowshoeing tours are available that depart from the village.
Horse drawn sleigh rides also depart from the village. These are only 30 minutes in duration, so you won’t freeze your butt off (and they provide blankets for the ride)!
Gorgoza Park is only a 5 minute drive from Canyons Resort where there is snow tubing, and thankfully the tubing lanes are serviced by magic carpets. Don’t be fooled that this is a kids-only activity. Adults will also get a great giggle out of this. The park also has mini-snowmobile rides, but these probably are just for kids.
Similarly there are plenty of activities at the
Utah Olympic Park to entertain both adults and children including tubing, zip-lining, and museum tours. This place is definitely worthy of a visit.
Adventure Activities
Canyons has ziplining, with two different options depending on your need for a thrill.
Adventure seekers will also find plenty of activities in Park City, but the ultimate adventure activity is bob sledding at the
Utah Olympic Park.
The thrill of careening around in a snowmobile is on offer with various different operators in Park City.
And if you can bring yourself to wake up early, sunrise hot air balloon rides are a beautiful way to see Park City.
Canyons Day Spas
For rest, relaxation and rejuvenation, there are at least a few spas at Canyons Village. The day spa at the Grand Summit Resort Hotel has services such as massages, facials, wraps, manicures and pedicures. The price of treatments is OK (but not cheap), so you can achieve the desired outcome without breaking the bank.
The day spa at the Waldorf Astoria provides a very exclusive and exceptional experience, with rates to match.
