Utah Olympic Park is a sports venue in Summit County built for the 2002 Winter Olympics, featuring ski jump towers, a bobsled track, and facilities for various winter sports. The grounds include areas for athlete training, a museum displaying Olympic history, and activity stations for visitors.
The site was developed specifically for the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City and continued operating as a training and visitor center afterward. The structures and tracks built for those Games still define the park's layout and purpose.
The park's name reflects its role as host of the 2002 Winter Olympics, marking it as a center of winter sports tradition. Visitors witness athletes training daily, and the active use of facilities gives the place a strong sports culture that connects the community to Olympic history.
The grounds are easy to walk around with parking available nearby, and visitors should wear sturdy shoes since some areas have loose surfaces. Most activities run during daylight hours and depend on weather conditions, so it is worth checking current schedules before visiting.
The park has one of only a few bobsled tracks in North America and allows visitors to ride a bobsled themselves, giving a direct taste of the speed and forces Olympic athletes experience. The summer version uses wheeled sleds instead of ice, making this thrilling experience available year-round.
