Boating and Water Activities

With so much of Utah's land being desert, some find it surprising that Utah has over 100 lakes and reservoirs used for boating activities. In fact, Utah is ranked sixth in the U.S. for the amount of "boatable" water per capita. Whether you prefer boating, water skiing, kayaking, rafting, fishing, swimming or just floating, water recreation is abundant in any form you choose.

Off Roading

With so much of Utah designated as public land administered for recreational use, and hundreds of miles of backcountry trails, great four-wheel drive or ATV terrain is never far away. Utah is arguably the top state in the country for off-roading activities.

Snowmobiling

The greatest snow on earth is not just for skiers and snowboarders. Utah is a top destination for winter snowmobiling, with over 800 miles of groomed trails across the state. For those who enjoy more rugged terrain, there are thousands of acres of high-mountain bowls that can be accessed from the groomed trails.
