Heber Valley Railroad, Heritage railway in Heber City, Utah.

Heber Valley Railroad is a heritage railway in Utah that operates 16-mile round-trip journeys through mountain valleys past Deer Creek Reservoir. The route showcases the surrounding landscape with Mount Timpanogos visible throughout the experience, offering passengers scenic views from restored train cars.

Construction of the Denver and Rio Grande Western branch through Provo Canyon began in 1897 and was completed in 1899, when the first train reached Heber City and mayors Abraham Hatch and L.O. Taft drove the final spike. The line carried sheep and freight; in the 1920s and 1930s more sheep left Heber's depot than any other station in the United States. Regular freight ended in 1966, and the lower end of the branch was pulled up for scrap in 1971, the year public tourist trains began running in July.

The line's nickname, the Heber Creeper, dates from the private operation run by Heber businessman Lowell Ashton and his family from the 1970s into the 1980s, when the railroad also ran under names such as the Wasatch Mountain Railroad and Deer Creek Scenic Railroad. In the 1920s and 1930s more sheep left Heber's depot than any other station in the United States.

Trains leave from the depot in Heber City and run to Vivian Park, a round trip of about 16 miles (26 km) that typically takes around 90 minutes. The line climbs through Provo Canyon, so expect cooler, changeable mountain weather; bring layers. The depot sits a few blocks from the former Heber Creeper shops, which were removed when the new station was built.

The railroad served as a key shuttle service during the 2002 Winter Olympics, carrying thousands of spectators to Soldier Hollow venue. This role during the Games demonstrated how the historic line remained vital for moving large crowds.
