Beautiful hikes with wonderful views of the surrounding mountains.Occasionally deer, elk, moose and bear have been sighting roaming this area. 4 mile round trip from our condo, difficulty rated as moderate. (This trail is NOT near Moab. It is near our place at Solitude, up Big Cottonwood Canyon).

Biking

Take to the trails on two wheels. Mountain bikes are a great way to experience hidden terrain and see some wildlife. Both scenic and accessible, Solitude offers 20 miles of tree-lined trails.

Best Mountain Biking in Utah (In our opinion). Lifts open in the summer months, also great idea to run a shuttle with friends before the summer months hit and it gets busy.

This is a long, scenic bike ride (26 miles) through Big Cottonwood Canyon, Park City, and Millcreek UT. Not for the faint of heart but intermediate to expert bikers would enjoy. Shuttle required, and is only bike-friendly on even days of the week.
