The Heber Valley is the PERFECT bucket-list destination. Between endless trails, three state parks, and 90 holes of golf, the opportunities for memorable adventures are as plentiful as the shiny stars in our certified dark sky program.
Perhaps you’ve always wanted to soak in a geothermal crater or let the summer air blow through your hair while riding a tourism railroad with your family and friends. Or maybe you are the adventurous type that prefers faster speeds and higher summits. If so, you’ll love soaring through the air in one of our famous ziplines or mountain biking the WOW trail at Wasatch Mountain State Park.
And then there are the water activities: boating, rafting, fishing, windsurfing, and even paddleboarding — oh, and did we mention the inflatable playgrounds at Deer Creek and Jordanelle state parks?
For the most daring to those looking to just enjoy all that summer offers, Heber Valley is like a backyard playground and a perfect place to complete your own bucket list. But before you read further, we’d like to let you in on our favorite secret: unlike a traditional bucket list where you only do something once, the Heber Valley will make you want to come back again and again.
