Autumn is almost here and it’s a favorite time of year with the mild temperatures and that lovely crispness in the air. And this is the perfect time of year to enjoy some fall activities.
Take to The Hills
Taking a hike through the fall colors can be a great adventure. One of the most popular is the Mid-Mountain Trail were you’ll be at an elevation of 8,000 feet and hiking between the Canyons and Deer Valley. There are more than 400 miles of trails in the area, and with the cooler temps, you can enjoy many of them without worrying about the heat.
You can also take a short drive to Kamas and the nearby Uinta Mountains were you can enjoy the spectacular colors.
You can get closer to nature with a tour of the Swaner Nature Preserve where you can catch a glimpse of some of the area’s wildlife. Take a zipline ride to soar through the air above the treetops. And again, there’s lift-served hiking and biking to enjoy at the area resorts.
Take to the Skies
As the air begins to cool, you’ll start seeing more and more colorful balloons dotting the skies. This is a great ride — high above the rooftops, where you can take in all the beautiful autumn colors. One of the best balloon rides you can enjoy are the sunrise flights, where you will often enjoy a glass of champagne while soaring through the air.
Visit the Farmers’ Market
The weekly Park City Farmers’ Market is a great place to take advantage of the harvest season. You’ll find great fresh produce including tomatoes, chilies, corn and much more. There are also breads, jams, jellies and other tasty delights that are a great addition to a fall barbeque.
It’s Time to Look Forward to Winter
The autumn months are a wonderful precursor to the upcoming winter months. It’s the time to swap out the summer for winter clothes and start tuning up the skis and boards.
This is also a great time of year to look for some Park City property. We at YouInParkCity.com and KW Park City Keller Williams Real Estate are here to help whether you want to sell or buy. Our agents are all knowledgeable about the area and all the great things there are to do and see!
