  • Glen Canyon at Lake Powell- Great for a weekend trip for those attending college in Utah, the lake is popular for hiring house boats and water skiing whilst taking in one of the oldest natural sites in the US.
  • More of a cold weather person? Head to Alta in Salt Lake during the snow season for one of the most amazing skiing experiences.
  • Check out the fossils at the Dinosaur National Monument museum- If you’re interested in the ancient history of the land, check our dinosaur bones that are as old as 65 million years!
  • There are a number of amazing hiking tracks around the area for those wishing to take on an active weekend.

Heading to Utah? Get ready for an active stay, the mountain hiking tracks, kayaking in Lake Powell and experiencing the snowfields at Alta, you’re in for a great trip!!
