It is easy to create a long bucket list when you live (or even travel!) to Utah. There are so many bucket-list-worthy destinations to visit, from national parks to restaurants. While you can always explore the backcountry to find hidden gems and bucket-list-worthy locations, there are many towns scattered around the state where some of the best attractions are found. Here are just seven towns in Utah where you can find at least one bucket-list-worthy destination.
700 Homestead Dr, Midway, UT 84049, USA
For a swimming experience unlike any other, head to the small town of Midway and visit the Homestead Resort. Here, you can not only spend the night, eat delicious food, and swim in one of the multiple swimming pools, but you’ll also want to swim in The Crater. This is a geothermal spring inside a 55-foot-tall dome rock where you can soak, snorkel, scuba dive, and swim.
3419 Olympic Pkwy, Park City, UT 84098, USA
You can unleash your inner Olympian at the Utah Olympic Park in Park City. This incredible attraction was built for the 2002 Salt Lake Olympic Winter Games.

You can also soar down the sliding track in a bobsled for an unforgettable and heart-racing adventure.
