UTAH— Snowbasin Resort, located just over an hour from Park City, has exciting news for outdoor enthusiasts, as they have announced their longest summer operations.

With the resort open on Saturdays and Sundays, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. for gondola-assisted hiking, visitors can now enjoy the magnificent scenery of the mountains throughout the weekend.

Not only that, but dog owners can bring along their furry friends on a leash. This addition makes Snowbasin one of the few dog-friendly resorts in Utah.

“Snowbasin is a stand-alone mountain with 3,000 isolated acres across the mountain,” said Kayla McFarland, PR and communications manager for Snowbasin Resort. “We have 20 trials spanning 26 miles and partner with the US Forest Service, so there is trail access across the 3,000 acres. Our views are Swiss Alps-like, with a peak at the top that kind of looks like the Matterhorn; we have very distinct cliffs and features.”

What to do

Mountain-top brunch– Award-winning food and beautiful views are to be expected, while brunching at Mountain Top restaurant while getting there is half the fun. Board the Needles Gondola and ascend to 8,700 feet above sea level. The menu changes weekly to showcase the season’s finest ingredients and the chefs’ imaginative creations.

Served every Sunday through October 8 from 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
