The Mountain Coaster In Utah That Will Take You On A Ride Of A Lifetime

By Catherine Armstrong | Published March 18, 2017

There are so many ways to get out and play in nature when you live in Utah. Our ski resorts are gorgeous in the summer, and we love to ski them in the winter, but here’s a non-skiing activity you can do year-round. Take a look at the Alpine Coaster at Park City Resort – it’s open right now!

The Alpine Coaster at Park City Resort is an exhilarating mountain coaster that takes you right through a beautiful alpine forest.

Each rider has his own car, which has a hand brake so you can control the speed.

If you have a small child, you can ride double.

The coaster is elevated, so you ride right through the trees. It's a beautiful trip!

The track twists and turns for more than a mile.

You'll go down hills...

...around curves...

...and over bridges.

Along the way, you'll reach speeds up of to 30 mph.

A ride on the coaster is magical when the fall foliage is in its full regalia.

The best thing about the Alpine Coaster? It's even open during the winter, as long as the weather is good.

Ride every day in the winter from noon to 4:00 pm.

While you're at Park City Resort, make sure to take a ride on the lift - you don't want to miss this view!
