Located in the mountain town of Park City, Utah, Park City Alpine Slide offers an exhilarating alpine slide and mountain coaster experience that’s perfect for families and thrill-seekers alike. This unique outdoor adventure lets visitors ride a chair lift to the top of a scenic mountain, where they select a sled or coaster car that they control as they race down winding tracks. The attraction is particularly special for Park City, a renowned outdoor recreation hub well known for its ski resorts and summer mountain activities. Here, the alpine slide offers a refreshing summer counterpart to the snowy winter sports that dominate the region.
The alpine slide itself is constructed on a gentle mountain slope, surrounded by the towering pine forests and rugged limestone outcroppings typical of the Wasatch Range. Riders can expect panoramic views of the surrounding forested peaks while feeling in control of their speed, accelerating through smooth curves and slight drops along the slide’s metal track. The mountain coaster provides an adrenaline-filled alternative, where gravity powers carts along a roller coaster-like steel track with tight turns and exciting elevation changes.

The facility arranges staggered starts to keep rides safe and breezy, ensuring no collisions between riders.
