Summertime in Park City and Kimball Junction is nothing short of magical, with idyllic weather ranging from the mid-70s to mid-80s, making it the perfect destination for outdoor enthusiasts and event-goers alike. As you plan your trip to this vibrant mountain town, consider immersing yourself in the hub of all the action by staying at Newpark Resort, where luxury meets convenience and offers a suite of amenities that cater to every type of traveler.
June - The Gateway to Summer Fun
Kick off your summer with the hiking trails opening as Park City’s outdoor experiences turn from skiing to hiking. The trails open for hiking and biking, and the area becomes a playground for adventurers. The weather is perfect in June, with sunny highs in the lower 70s and lows in the mid-40s. Don’t worry about traveling with your gear or having to purchase items before you travel; Christy Sports has everything you need for hiking and outdoor activities.
We have a suggestion for a casual daytime hike you can start with. The Armstrong trail, which is 3.3 miles long, is good for casual hiking and mountain biking. It’s a dog-friendly loop where you can enjoy shady golden aspen groves and sensational views of Park City when you’re coming back on the downhill side of the loop. When you complete the 3.3-mile loop, stop by Five5eeds for lunch. They offer dishes made with the finest local, seasonal produce.
After a day exploring the mountains, retreat to Newpark Resort, where the luxury deluxe suite, the two-bedroom suite, and townhouse options provide ample space for groups or families looking to unwind together. The fully equipped kitchen allows you to prepare a meal with fresh produce from the Park City Farmers Market, a weekly event every Wednesday that showcases local artisans and farmers.
July - The Heart of Summer
July in Park City is a time to celebrate. The 4th of July parade and fireworks are a must-see, drawing locals and visitors together for a day filled with patriotism and community spirit. Start with the Main Street Parade at 11 a.m. and then spend your afternoon exploring Kimball Junction’s Main Street. When the sun sets, that means it’s time for an extraordinary spectacle like never before. An innovative drone show is replacing traditional fireworks in Park City!
In July, you can experience beautiful sunshine from sun rising to sunset, with highs in the lower 80s and lows around 50 degrees. If you’ve forgotten the sweater for the evenings or sun-safe clothing for the daytime, the Outlets Park City has all the clothing brands you’re already familiar with at great prices, from Columbia, Merrill, and Nike to Eddie Baur.
Don’t miss the Park City Food and Wine Classic this month, an epicurean extravaganza that pairs beautifully with a stay at Newpark Resort. Enjoy hundreds of food artisans, wineries, breweries, distilleries, epicurean purveyors and local producers at the ultimate food and wine experience. With over twenty different events throughout the weekend, you can curate your own personalized festival. Make sure to stop by at least one of the signature events, The Toast, Wine On The Mountain, or The Stroll, where you can try more than 200 wines from all over the world, nibble on small bites from local chefs, and enjoy live music!
August - Summer’s Grand Finale
As summer reaches its zenith, Park City becomes a hub for arts and culture. The Kimball Arts Festival, happening in early August, transforms Main Street into an outdoor gallery featuring hundreds of artists. Staying at Newpark Resort positions you just a short drive (or use convenient local shuttles or other transportation options) from this event, allowing for easy access to the festivities. Being outside in August may be uncomfortable in other areas of the United States, but in Kimball Junction, you’ll experience summer perfection with daytime highs in the low 80s and nighttime lows in the high 40s.
For music lovers, the Deer Valley Music Festival presents an opportunity to enjoy concerts under the stars. Spread out your blankets and prepare to be amazed by the breathtaking views while enjoying a world-class performance by the Utah Symphony, featuring renowned guest artists and conductors. Re-entry to performances is allowed with a handstamp and ticket, which means you can wander into Park City and enjoy any of the over 100 restaurants and bars; there is a dining option that will match your mood.
Imagine returning to a Newpark Resort townhouse after a night of music. On your private patio, you and your friends can reminisce over the evening’s highlights. Just a seven-minute walk from the resort, you can grab some late-evening wine and light snacks from Smith’s.
Between Events - Newpark’s Array of Amenities
Between these signature events, Newpark Resort offers a wealth of amenities to enhance your stay. Take a dip in the heated outdoor pool, unwind in the hot tub, or explore the surrounding nature trails.
