The 10 Best Free Things to do in Wasatch Range, Wasatch Range
Stretching 160 miles through Utah, the Wasatch Range makes a rugged, glacial backdrop for the 85% of the states population living within 15 miles. Mount Nebo is highest at 11,928 feet, but the peaks around Alta and Park City are most popular. "The greatest snow on earth" falls on these spectacular slopes. Lone Peaks granite outcrops provide top climbing. Canyons and valleys are loved by fly-fishermen and hikers. After all that adventure, retire to a hip restaurant or enticing hot tub in chic Park City.

Very upscale and scenic. This is a large, multi-street, outside retail venue (think H&M and Sephora) that is especially beautiful and quaint at night due to the white twinkle lights, large fireplaces, benches, and overhead music. Many places are open late in here. Be prepared to walk a bit if you are retail shopping, unless you can find parking along the streets in front of the stores. Be sure not to miss the outstanding restaurants and eateries located deep within the retail area. The more common eateries like Panda Express and Chick Fil-A are located across the parking lot near the very popular Nordstrom Rack and Home Goods.

Wow, a Saturday morning drive on the Guardsman Pass between Park city and Salt Lake City is definitely an adventure. The beauty is incredible. The curves, cliffs and bikers make it very challenging but fun. Lots of pull offs,hikers and bikers.

Mere words don't begin to describe the incredible beauty my family and I enjoyed during our visit today. From the deer to the coyotes to the snow-capped mountains to the beautiful mountain falls, my family and I highly recommend taking the Alpine Scenic Highway. It was a day to take in some of God's greatest creations.

This has quickly become our favorite playground in the area. The features are built so that adults can also ride with the kids - it's so much fun! Leave your cell phones behind and play! Someone put a lot of thought into this place - it's inviting for all ages and capabilities. It does get crowded in the summer but we've been even in the winter! We just bundled up and went. Thanks to whoever came up with this park - it's wonderful!

It's a beautiful artifice, inside and out. But what strikes me the most about this building and my many visits over the years is that the real beauty comes from the great feeling of peace and love that come as you enter the grounds and the temple itself. While it's true that you must hold a recommend as issued by the Church of Jesus Christ to enter, the special feeling and spiritual safety are available as you wander the beautiful and well kept grounds. I'm always thankful to make my way up the hill to visit this beautiful part of Cache Valley

Free admission to view a beautiful and thoughtfully designed stained glass wall in the University library. It is well lighted in the afternoons when the sun is in the west. There are limits on the number of visitors right now. We have been there multiple times and enjoy it each time. The team that created the windows works out of a studio at Thanksgiving Point and a tour there is also interesting.
