                In Park City and Deer Valley, Utah summer is here, well almost, and the lift assisted mountain biking and hiking program at Deer Valley Resort which opens June 19th will be a great way to see the beautiful mountain views, the wildlife and the wildflowers all of our spring showers will bring.  You can see all of this without a lot of uphill hiking or riding.  For more information on the Deer Valley Resort lift assisted hiking and biking programs see the YouInParkCity.com news release.                 For the adventurous home buyer looking for that perfect Park City home or condo biking can also be a great way to see some of Park City and Deer Valley real estate and a few fantastic neighborhoods. With the lift assisted program you can easily visit Upper Deer Valley communities like Bald Eagle, Black Bear Lodge, the Chateaux at Silver Lake, Stein Erikson Lodge, Stag Lodge just to name a few.  Continuing down the mountain to Lower Deer Valley  it is an easy ride through some of Park City's great communities like Solamere, the Lodges at Deer Valley, Silver Baron, Pinnacle, Fawngrove, Deer Lake Village, Black Diamond Lodge and many others.  If you have the energy, just continue downhill into Old Town where you can visit one of the fine restaurants for a light lunch for a well deserved beverage before continuing on to Prospector Square, Park Meadows or Thaynes Canyon.                   Park City is, for many homebuyers, as much about lifestyle as it is about the home or condominium you purchase. Some of the communities are gated and if you want to get into tour individual homes or condominiums you will need a REALTOR®. So, if you want to take a ride and visit some great Park City homes we are offering our services (think of it as a summer ski tour).  Just contact us and let us know you want to do a Deer Valley or Park City home tour on bikes and we schedule some time with you.
