9 Most Beautiful Small Towns In Utah You Should Visit
Utah overflows with natural beauty, and is also well known for its range of recreation opportunities, from an exhilarating adventure in one of its “Mighty Five” national parks (Zion, Bryce Canyon, Arches, Capitol Reef, and Canyonlands) to scenic drive through the aspen forests or even a visit to Park City Mountain, the largest ski resort in the country. A trip to Utah would be incomplete without a stop in one of its most beautiful small towns, with activities ranging from a stroll along charmed main streets to a breathtaking sunrise in Bryce Canyon. Whatever the trip entails, adventure awaits in the small towns of Utah.
Park City sits in the center of the Wasatch Mountains, boasting breathtaking scenery, an enticing cultural scene, and of course a charming mountain town atmosphere. In winter, skiing, snowboarding, and hiking are popular activities, with the Park City Mountain ski resort within the town’s limits. Throughout the rest of the year, visitors enjoy mountain biking, fishing, and golfing. The hamlet’s historic main street is another delightful spot, featuring restaurants and shops such as Java Cow Café & Bakery, Flight Boutique, and Deer Valley Signatures. After an eventful day exploring the town and its adventures, be sure to enjoy a taste of craft whiskeys and vodkas at the High West Distillery and Saloon.
On top of all that, Park City is just under 45 minutes away from Salt Lake City, meaning travelers can enjoy the charm of the small town alongside the excitement of the big city.
Springdale
Springdale is one of the most underrated towns in Utah, situated just outside the boundaries of Zion National Park, making it a hub for outdoor adventurists and park-goers alike. The park’s red rock monoliths line the town’s horizon, making for a postcard-worthy backdrop. Visitors can spend days exploring the thousand-foot-deep red rock canyon, hiking, camping, canoeing, rock climbing, and stargazing. Sunrises and sunsets are especially breathtaking as the warm orange rays bring the multicolored sandstone to life. Though the town only houses 500 residents, it is chock full of interest, with gorgeous art galleries such as Worthington Gallery, as well as unique stops like Springdale Candy Company, and charming restaurants like Oscar’s Cafe.
