Utah Olympic Park

About

Utah Olympic Park sits nestled in the Wasatch Mountains just outside Park City, preserving the legacy of the 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Olympics. Today it's a year-round destination where visitors can explore Olympic history, watch athletes train, and even try thrilling activities themselves. The park spans 389 acres of mountain terrain with world-class facilities that continue to serve as a training ground for future Olympians.

The Alf Engen Ski Museum and Eccles Salt Lake 2002 Olympic Winter Games Museum are centerpiece attractions. These interactive exhibits walk you through the history of skiing in the Intermountain West and the story of how Salt Lake City hosted the world. You'll find Olympic memorabilia, athlete profiles, and hands-on displays that bring the Games to life for visitors of all ages.

For those seeking adventure, the park offers guided tours of the ski jumps, bobsled and luge tracks, and freestyle aerial training facilities. In summer months, visitors can ride the comet bobsled, try the zip line, or take an extreme tubing run. Winter brings opportunities to watch ski jumping and aerial competitions up close, sometimes with athletes flying overhead during training sessions.

The surrounding Park City area adds even more to a visit. Historic Main Street offers restaurants, galleries, and shops, all connected by a free trolley system. The town has built a reputation as one of Utah's most welcoming mountain communities, with growing attention to making outdoor recreation available to everyone.

Whether you're a sports fan, history buff, or someone who simply wants to stand where Olympic dreams came true, Utah Olympic Park delivers an experience that's equal parts inspiring and fun. Free self-guided tours of the outdoor venues are available daily, making it easy to visit at your own pace.

Accessibility

Utah Olympic Park's museum facilities, including the Alf Engen Ski Museum and the Eccles 2002 Olympic Winter Games Museum, are housed in a modern building with accessible entrances and indoor exhibits designed for all visitors. The museum level is reachable without stairs, and exhibits include visual and interactive elements.

The outdoor portions of the park are set on mountain terrain, which means some areas involve hills, uneven surfaces, and elevation changes. Paved pathways connect several of the main viewing areas near the ski jumps and freestyle venues, though not all outdoor routes may be fully accessible. Visitors with mobility considerations should contact the park ahead of time to ask about current conditions and which areas are easiest to reach.

Parking is available on-site with designated accessible spaces near the main building entrance. Restroom facilities inside the museum building are accessible. The nearby Park City area offers additional accessibility features, including a free wheelchair-accessible trolley along Main Street and elevator access at 825 Main Street for reaching upper-level shops and restaurants.

For adaptive sports programming, the National Ability Center operates in the Park City area and partners with local venues to provide adaptive skiing, snowboarding, and other recreational opportunities. Visitors interested in adaptive activities should reach out to them directly for scheduling and availability. Contact Utah Olympic Park at (435) 658-4200 for the most current details on accessibility features, guided tour accommodations, and any seasonal changes to facility access.
