You’ll find yourself returning again and again.

Alpine Slide at Park City Mountain Resort

The favorite activity in the summer for locals is to have an adventure on the Alpine Slide at Park City Mountain Resort. Visitors read about it or hear the word-of-mouth about the thrills and come to try it out. Perhaps they have a slide, then go mountain biking nearby or shopping in some of the unique shops, but they have to come back once again to play on the Alpine Slide.

Although Park City Mountain Resort has other rides, like the Alpine Coaster and the ZipRider™, nothing seems to compare to the Alpine Slide. It has four different tracks and you can take your choice. Or try one after the other. They all twist and turn down a course over 3,000 feet long. You can control your speed, so this is optimum especially when a young child is aboard. This is one of the longest slides in the world.

Points to Remember

• To drive your own sled, you must be over four feet tall
• If you are over four feet tall, you can’t ride with another driver 
• Under four feet, you must be with a driver who is older than 18 
• Save money by booking five rides

Alpine Slide at Utah Olympic Park

You can also go to Utah Olympic Park in Park City to ride “The Quicksilver” Alpine Slide. This is a slide in much the style of many in Europe. Made of state of the art steel, it allows the riders to ride down a course ending at the base of a ski jump. Thrilling and a real adventure, this slide elicits screams of pure pleasure.

Points to Remember

• Get a second ride (called a “bounce back”) for about half price 
• An adult with a child only pays a bit more 
• A curvy and thrilling ride

No matter which ride you choose, you will certainly have the time of your life as you become a bobsled enthusiast, navigating the swirls, dips, twirls and bends of the track. Get the spirit of the Olympic games. Come to Park City for an incredible amount of fun. Everyone loves it, young and old. Don’t miss the rocket rides of the Alpine Slides this summer.
