Hiking
The path best traveled.
Snowbird’s extensive network of trails provides many opportunities for outdoor enjoyment. Whether you are exploring right from the Snowbird Center, enjoying the wildflowers in Mineral Basin or walking down after an Aerial Tram ride to Hidden Peak, you’ll find hiking in the Wasatch Mountains to be a rewarding experience.
Family-Friendly Hikes
- Walk the Observation Point Trail to view interpretive panels about the local area and relax on a deck with great down-canyon views.
- Hike Dean’s Delight to enjoy a lovely dirt trail that weaves through groves of trees and over the cascading Gad Valley stream.
- Take the Aerial Tram to Hidden Peak then hike Peruvian Gulch Road or Wildflower Trail to the Tunnel, an interpretive walk through the mountain itself, then ride down on the Peruvian Chairlift (height restrictions apply).
