PARK CITY, UTAH - There might not be snow on the mountain yet, but October is still an ideal time to visit Park City. You get crisp mountain air, yellow aspen groves, and fewer crowds, plus plenty of chances to hike, mountain bike, and go fly fishing. There’s also the option to align your trip with the fabulous Park City Wine Festival (Oct. 2-4)—or wait until Halloween for costumes and fun on Main Street.
Where to Stay: Goldener Hirsch topped the list of T+L readers’ favorite Utah resorts in the 2025 World’s Best Awards, but it’s far from the only option in town. Grand Hyatt Deer Valley was featured on the 2025 It List, and Pendry Park City and The St. Regis Deer Valley both offer a high-end mountain experience.
