Camp at the Rockport State Park Yurts

Peoa, Utah

Description

Staying in the yurts is a great way to get out for a weekend without giving up some comforts of home. It also lets you step outside and do other activities such as fishing and boating or ice fishing and snowshoeing in the winter.

The yurts at Rockport are a great way to get out into nature. You can chose between yurts or cabins. Yurts cost $70 a night and cabins cost $80 a night. Spots will have to be secured with reservations in advance. You can find more information at http://rockportmarina.checkfront.com/reserve/. There is a shop there that is usually open and you can purchase some food and drink there but I wouldn't rely on it for food.

Depending on the time of year many different activities can be done near the yurts. Rockport Reservoir is just a couple hundred feet from the yurt. You can go fishing, swimming, boating, stand up paddle boarding, kayaking, and canoeing in the summer. Winter activities include snowshoeing, ice fishing, and you could cross country ski.

Make sure to clean up after yourself and keep it cleaner than you came so others can enjoy it too.

Ride the RTS Trail

The RTS trail at Utah's Olympic Park (ski jumping, bobsled, skeleton, and luge), is a fantastic beginner-to-intermediate trail. Since it's a short loop at only 2.6 miles and 366 feet of elevation gain, it's perfect for kids and beginners. Most of the sections are smooth dirt that winds through aspen groves and meadows. The lower trail has a few more rocks - just enough for beginners to test the...

Hike Quarry Mountain in Park City

The Quarry Mountain trail is a less-traveled option than the Iron Mountain trail in Park City offering unique views of McPolin Farm to the west, Kimball Junction and Old Ranch Road to the north, Park City to the south, and Promontory Ranch to the East. The trail starts at the McPolin Farm parking area on the east side Highway 224 (the main road from I-80 to old town Park City) and ends at the t...

Run the Historic Park City Union Pacific Rail Trail

The Park City Rail Trail is a fantastic trail for walks, running, and biking in the spring, summer, and fall. During the winter it's groomed so you can Nordic ski, fat bike, run or walk. Park City's historic Union Pacific Rail Trail has been paved from Bonanza Drive in Park City all the way out to Highway 248 - a distance of 3-miles. Since it's an old railway line, it's primarily flat with onl...

Mountain Bike the Genwild/Jeremy Ranch Trails

There are several places to access the trail system and several good places to park on both the Jeremy Ranch side and the Glenwild side. One of my favorite options is to park at the end of Jeremy Road and then take the 24-7 trail into the action. This is also a good way to access the Flying Dog trail. Because of its south faces and lower elevation, this network is a great for early or late seas...

Mountain Bike Deer Valley, Park City

If you’re a downhill bomber, you came to the right place. The resort has lift-served singletrack of every difficulty with machine-built table tops, berms, tree runs and technical obstacles. If cross country is more your scene, there are miles of forested climbs, beautiful views and enjoyable downhill. To ride the lifts, park at the Snow Park Lodge, where you’ll buy your ticket and rent a bike/p...

Hike, Run, Bike Rob's Trail in Park City

Rob's Trail is a perennial favorite among Park City locals for year-round hiking, trail running, or mountain biking. The trail is primarily an out-and-back, but it if you go a bit further it can be combined with other trails to create a loop. The trail meanders through aspen and pine trees on the north side of the hill and is fairly wide in terms of a hiking trail. On hot summer days the trees ...
