Short, steep switchbacks lead to a compact summit where a guided yoga session gives panoramic views of Park City and the Wasatch. Expect a 30–45 minute climb, a 45–60 minute yoga practice, and about two hours total—ideal for hikers comfortable at elevation.

The morning air is thin and bright as you step off at the PC Hill trailhead, boots crunching on dry dirt while switchbacks carve a steady climb through sagebrush and scattered aspen. Each bend opens a wider view of Park City below: rooftops, the distant ski runs, and the spine of the Wasatch rising to woolly ridgelines. In about 30–45 minutes you’ll reach the summit—a compact bench where mats unroll to a full 360-degree appraisal of mountain and valley.

Wildlife
History
Park City grew from 19th-century silver mining; many trails follow or intersect old mining roads and infrastructure that shaped local routes.
Conservation
Stay on established trails and pack out all trash—fragile alpine soils and sagebrush recover slowly. Group sizes are kept small to limit erosion and trail widening.

Hydrate for altitude
Drink extra water before and during the hike—Park City sits around 7,000 ft and dehydration hits faster at elevation.
Wear sturdy shoes
Choose trail shoes with good grip; the route has firm dirt and occasional loose rock on switchbacks.
Bring sun protection
UV intensifies at altitude—use SPF, a hat, and sunglasses even on cool mornings.
Secure your mat
A lightweight strap or tie helps keep your yoga mat from blowing away on exposed summit benches.
Daypack with 1L+ water
Hydration and a small pack for layers, snacks, and personal items are essential at elevation.
Trail shoes
Supportive shoes with good traction make the switchback climb and rocky sections easier.
Light layering jacket
Temperature and wind can change quickly at the summit—pack a windbreaker or lightweight insulated layer.
