The Alpine Coaster at Park City Resort is a unique experience. Here we are getting read to push off.
On such a warm day at Park City Resort, the kids had grown weary of the icy skiing by early afternoon. Many of the trails that were open took us right past the track of the Park City Alpine Coaster, and Timmy was very interested in giving it a spin.
Timmy and I decided to get some tickets and check it out!
The tickets were printed on the same paper as the lift tickets.
The line wasn’t that long, so in about 10 minutes, Timmy and I were able to board one of the small cars. I didn’t get a picture of Timmy and me in one of the cars, but I did find a picture of what the car looks like here.
So Timmy had to sit in front of me. That was fine, I could get a couple pictures of him, such as the one at the beginning of this post.
Here is a list of rules. Yes, there were many.
After some seatbelt checks and instructions on how to use the brakes, we were off!
We weren’t supposed to take photos or video while on the coaster itself, so I just took a couple pictures in the first minute or so, then packed away my camera and enjoyed the ride! Note the bridge on the left, we were headed to the lower deck of that bridge.
…and here’s the bridge. Okay, time to put away the camera!
The Park City Alpine Coaster is open year round, but be sure to check the daily hours. Tickets are available at the same locations at the base lodge and throughout town as the ski resort lift tickets. Rides are $20 per adult rider and $7 per passenger. You can combine the Alpine Coaster with the nearby Flying Eagle Zip Line for $25 for the main rider and $10 for the passenger.
Since I couldn’t record the downhill experience, here’s a video to enjoy.
