Summer Trails Overview
400 MILES OF SINGLETRACK
Park City trails are open to hiking/trail-running, mountain biking and equestrian trail users. Ranging in altitude from 6,500’ to nearly 10,000’, the trail system spans the whole environmental scale. In a single excursion, trail users can experience everything from high-desert covered in sagebrush, mountain mahogany and rabbit brush to the archetypal high-altitude alpine environment.
Park City has been recognized by the International Mountain Biking Association (IMBA) as the first Gold Level Ride Center in the world and continues to share that status with five other destinations. Both the Mid Mountain trail and the 26-mile, Park City Epic- Armstrong & Pinecone combined with the Wasatch Crest & Mid Mtn, are recognized as IMBA Epic rides.
June – November
The season for alpine trails typically begins in June and runs through early November. Snowpack and rate of spring melt significantly impact the accessibility of trails above 7,000’. Trail crews must wait until trails are dry before they can begin clearing winter blow-downs and making necessary, post-winter repairs. Trails in the lower-lying areas of Park City, such as Round Valley and Glenwild dry out and can be accessible up to six weeks earlier than on-mountain trails.
Weather
Utah is known for dynamic and severe weather, especially on the Wasatch Back. During summer months, temperatures can vary as much as 40 degrees in a single day. Summer storms, though typically brief, often cause sudden downpours of heavy rain/hail with temperatures plummeting 25+ degrees and are usually accompanied by lightning. Keep an eye on the sky. If thunderheads begin to develop it is wise to get off the mountain quickly.

Wowza! The wild flowers are still in full swing, so get out there this weekend! 💐 Fingers crossed 🤞 these scattered showers will dump enough precip to tame the current moon dust conditions. 🌪️

Help support an organization advocating for trail access! Learn about the importance of universal access and trail design, plus see a beautiful story of community and resilience.
We’re proud to help spread the word about this special evening on July 25 at Jim Santy Auditorium in Park City, Utah. The evening features a screening of Best Day Ever, an award-winning documentary that follows adaptive mountain bikers Greg Durso and Allie Bianchi as they navigate the challenges of disability and find happiness, friendship, and community through mountain biking.
Co-hosted by Park City Film, the evening will include a post-film Q&A and a lively reception. We hope you’ll join us for this inspiring celebration. give.kellybrushfoundation.org/event/kbf-park-city-celebration-weekend-2026/e787534
