There is nothing better than showing someone how much you care than with a trip to one of their favorite places. If you are looking for the perfect way to treat your dad simply book him a vacation getaway here to Park City. Utah is the ideal summer destination with warm temperatures that are not too hot and gorgeous views of the surrounding valley. Park City also has plenty of local attractions and activities that will make the trip one to remember. Take a look at how you can spend a Park City Father’s Day right here:
Take a Walk Down Historic Main Street
Not every activity during a vacation needs to be busy and on the move. Instead, spend some time relaxing with your dad and take a stroll down Historic Main Street. Park City originated as a mining town and still holds historic buildings throughout its downtown district. Historic Main Street is lined with a variety of shops, art galleries, and restaurants for you to peruse. The Kimball Art Center is always a favorite to see stellar works of art or grab a morning cup of coffee at Java Cow. Many of the restaurants offer fine dining at a whole new level allowing you to treat your dad to a decadent meal worthy of the celebration. These restaurants include Riverhorse on Main and Grappa, both with decadent menus and drink lists.
Night on the Town
If dad prefers a guy’s night out, you can always check out the local bar scene here in Park City. You can find more casual spots that are perfect for a guy’s night out with drinks. No Name Saloon and The Spur Bar and Grill are both spots that are popular with the locals. Grab your favorite beer on draft or order up a cocktail or two to create memories dad will cherish after the trip has ended.
Take Dad Fly Fishing
You will also find plenty of outdoor activities that your dad is sure to love here in Park City. Fly fishing is always a popular pastime and can be enjoyed nearby at Provo River. A blue-ribbon fishery is located on the river, providing it with thousands of rainbow and brown trout just waiting to be caught. If you and dad are experienced fly fishers you can easily bring your gear and head on out to the water. However, beginners and novice fisherman may wish to book a guide who can take them to the hot spots for fishing. Some local tour guides you can book through include High Country Fly Fishers, All Seasons Adventures Fly Fishing, Park City Outfitters, and Wasatch Adventure Guides. Having an experience guide with you will make sure you are prepared for everything the activity calls for, giving you the best shot possible at getting a trophy sized catch. Most guides will also be able to help you obtain proper permits and licenses too so you can rest easy and simply enjoy the experience with dad.
Round on the Green
The summer season is the perfect time to take your dad on the green and enjoy a round of golf or two. Park City is home to Park City Golf Club and Canyons Golf where you can step up to the tee. These local golf courses are a favorite as you will have the beautiful mountains in the backdrop. The golf courses will be able to supply you with rental clubs for the day so you can experience some of the best golf out there. The elevation here in Park City helps with how far your golf ball can soar on the course. Don’t miss out on some of the finest greens there are to experience.
Hiking Around Park City
A relaxing day of exploring the hiking trails around Park City is currently waiting for you up here. Hiking in the area can be experienced at any point of the year but June is a great time to do it before it gets hotter over the summer.

While summer is not the most active season for wildlife there is always a chance to have sightings of elk, deer, moose, foxes, eagles, and more.
