Destination guide
Explore Salt Lake City
Most Salt Lake City hotels sit downtown near Temple Square, the Salt Palace Convention Center, and the Delta Center, home of the Utah Jazz and the city's NHL team. Salt Lake City International (SLC) is only about 10 minutes away, making it one of the easiest airports in the country for a ski trip.
Temple Square is the city's best-known landmark, with its historic buildings and gardens at the center of downtown. Nearby, the Utah State Capitol overlooks the valley from Capitol Hill, and the City Creek Center offers shopping under a retractable roof.
The Wasatch Mountains rise just east of the city. Alta, Snowbird, Brighton, and Solitude sit in the Cottonwood Canyons about 40 minutes away, and Park City is about 35 minutes east. In summer, the same mountains offer hiking and mountain biking, and the Great Salt Lake is a short drive west.

Getting around
- Salt Lake City International (SLC) connects to downtown on the TRAX Green Line light rail in about 20 minutes.
- Downtown is walkable, and TRAX is free within the downtown fare zone.
- For the ski resorts, take UTA ski buses or rent a car, since canyon roads may require snow tires or chains in winter.
- Salt Lake City sits at about 4,200 feet, and the resorts are much higher, so drink plenty of water.
