Park City earns no. 2 spot in Powder’s top ski resort golf courses rankings

PARK CITY, Utah — Park City was named the second-best golf destination among ski resorts in Powder’s latest ranking of six top mountain golf courses, highlighting year-round appeal and summer landscapes.

The ranking celebrates ski resorts that offer exceptional golf experiences once the snow melts, blending mountain views with creative course design. Park City stood out in part due to Canyons Golf, an 18-hole, par-70 course known for its elevation changes and panoramic views.

The course, located at the Canyons side of Park City Mountain, was designed by golf architects Gene and Casey Bates. It features standout elements like a dramatic 297-foot vertical drop on the 10th hole and a rare island green finishing at the 18th. These features, paired with challenging terrain, have made the course a favorite among summer visitors seeking a high-altitude tee time.

The Wasatch Back has a plethora of public courses to choose from, including Park City Golf Club, Wasatch Golf, Soldier Hollow, Homestead and Mountain Dell.

Park City also benefits from its cooler mountain climate, offering relief from the hotter temperatures found in nearby Salt Lake City. This makes the Canyons course a popular choice for golfers looking to enjoy summer sunshine without the scorching heat.

Telluride, Colorado, took the top spot on the list, praised for its dramatic scenery and high-altitude fairways. The rest of the list includes Sun Valley, Idaho; Sugarloaf, Maine; Killington and Stratton, Vermont.
