The Gold pass is a joke. We had 4 hours to spare so we thought we'd buy a pass so the kids could do multiple things . It took 2+ hours to ride the zip line just once. I'd skip this venue and activities

We have three very active boys ages 10, 13, and 16. They enjoyed the ziplines, tubing, ropes course, drop tower, and airbag jump. The bobsled was closed. The lines were reasonably short. The bottleneck was getting the tubes to the launch point but that was not a great delay still. The food was typical amusement park type food. We had the hamburgers and fries and my wife had the salad. The ride operators and staff were very friendly and engaging. I am giving it 5 stars since I think 4 would be too big of a down grade for the tube delay. The price for one day visit seemed a little high but there was a special online when we were making our travel plans which made it a good deal to me. We probably would have done it without the discount still since it is something the boys would enjoy.

My wife and I went here on a day off without the kids. So much fun! Definitely a good way to fill a day with some awesome activities. Wish I could have experienced the alpine slide (closed for two years running) and the zip line course (closed for maintainance) but still plenty to keep us busy. There is a lot of walking so if you are looking for a nice relaxing day off... This isn't it.

Tons of fun, but don't go on a weekend. We waited in line for about an hour for each activity, so we only got about 5 activities in. Sadly, the entire park is very inefficient and not designed to minimize wait times.

Awesome

Beautiful sites. Especially in the fall when the trees are beginning to change colors. They have a pool with a huge climbing wall next to it so you can climb the wall, and if you fall, you fall into the pool. Same thing for the ski long jump. You go down a huge ramp on skis, and land in the pool. There's exhibits showing scenes from the Winter Olympics held here, there's a small cafe with a limited selection of mediocre foods. We were there for the ziplines and tubing specifically. Hiking up to the attractions is fun, but of course, there's a lot of waiting, and since you purchase an entrance ticket, once you're in, the employees here, which consist 18 to 23 year old ski bums with nothing to do during summer months, taking their time to get everyone through the attraction since there's no incentive at all to move quicker. I probably wouldn't move quicker either if I was making eight bucks an hour. It was worth doing this once. Would I be back? Probably not. I think if you have younger children then this could be more enjoyable...or also possibly less enjoyable depending on how you look at it.

Got to see Olympic hopefuls in training on site including mogul jumpers perfecting their spins into a swimming pool. The area is in great shape for being 15 years old. Loved seeing the clip of the NYC singing police officer who served at Ground Zero perform "God Bless America" at the opening ceremony, which was replayed in the museum. So cool. Really glad I got to this place. A real treat.

it was quite an experience to see Olympic freestyle ski athletes train year round. They accelerate down the ramp as if their skies are gliding on snow. The end of the ramp curls upward propelling the athletes upward into the air where they twist, flip, and turn in unimaginable ways. While still twisting and turning their upward momentum reverses direction and the athlete soon lands in a swimming pool. !!!!! What, no snow. Not in July.

In town for summer vacation. Wanted to go to either Olympic Park or Park City Adventure. Love alpine slides and always wanted to do zip line, but typically weight limit usually less than 250. As a 260 lb guy, I was super excited that all adult Zip lines had published 275 lb weight limit. Although I knew going into it that the Olympic Park Alpine slide was closed, I was willing to miss that for the opportunity to do the Zip Line Tour. When we checked in, I asked about the weight limits and was directed to the website and was given a flyer. Both of these sources said the Zip Line Tour haf 275lb weight limit. MUCH to my surprise, when I arrived at the cabin for the tour, and the sign said limit was 250 lbs. When I inquired abour this, the very nice worker said they had "changed" the limit. Baffled by this, I went back to the same guy who I checked in with and he said, "oh, yes we changed that. Just haven't changed the website yet." While I understood that, NO WHERE in the place was a sign indicating such.

With all that said, we spent 5 hours enjoying the park. Kids LOVED it. Of course, they all said the Tour was the BEST. I thoroughly enjoyed all the activities my fat butt was allowed on. Bottomline: worth every penny, but if you don't want to take the ride of shame back down the chairlift because you tip the Toledos past 250, don't expect to do the tour. Guess it's time for a diet :)

Fun times during the pandemic were had during summer time on the slopes. The price was a bit much for only 2 hours of action on the zip lines, tubes, and alpine slide. It was worth going but I'm not sure I would pay such a steep price to go again.

We booked the bobsled a long time ago. It started snowing last night and continued on this morning. We couldn't get a hold of the bobsled booking to confirm our 9:30 bobsled reservation. We paid 55.00$ for an Uber because they charge so much in the snow. We get there, oh, its canceled. Nice, could have called, texted, emailed left a message on their voice mail. Anyway, not impressed with how they handled canceling the event. Yes, weather happens, they know that, we know that but you have a responsibility to let people know before they pay a ton of money just to show up that you have already decided to cancel but we're unwilling to help your clients out. Then we had to find a way back off the mountain.

Not much to see or visit but the place is worth the detour. The ski slopes and swimming pools are well maintained, the staff are welcoming and competent, we really learn more about the Olympic Games in Salt Lake City!

The Utah Olympic Park was such a blast for me as a first time visitor! Unfortunately not everything was open, but the tubing, ziplining and adventure course was plenty. They also have a Groupon! Highly recommend to anyone!

Super!

The water jumps are great to see when people are training there is a bike trails and some adrenaline activities like zip line, etc. The view is beautiful. The Olympic museum is interesting and free. Great experience. Recomended

This is a a very fun place to spend an afternoon. There are many trails for hiking, a ropes course, zip lines, a bobsled run, and many other activities.

The bobsled is a unique experience, but it can be pretty violent. Your head and shoulders get thrown against the side, and the high-g turns push down hard on your back.

The ropes course is pretty challenging, which is fun.

The staff is a little less service-oriented than best-in-class organizations, but are good at what they do.

Awesome place! I have a brother who trains here so I have visited many times. Beautiful scenery and great place to spend the day! This is a must see place if you are visiting this area!

Wonderful place to visit for history of the Utah Olympics as well as get a look at many practice runs because it's a training facility. A wonderful time for the family with many activities to do

Great fun for all. It is very cool to see the olympic legacy and every place that it has been in. I saw the Austrailian Ski Jumping team, or something like that, when I was there. It happened to be by coincidence, but you should try to go when teams are practicing there because it will make an already good experience much better.

Amazeballs! I didn't have my phone so I took like no pictures. But this place is incredible! Extreme zip lines, super extreme tubing. I have two preteen boots and this place was a dream come true for the whole family!!!

So much to see and do!

Watch the US Ski team practice aerials into the pool. Go through the museum. Ride a tube down the landing ramp of the 90 meter jump. Obstacle courses, zip lines and more are available.

Really cool venue, but just so poorly done.

Really cool venue, but just so poorly done.

No one is helpful.

Everything takes forever.

Super expensive.

And if there is a show going on everyone is shouting at you constantly to pay for the show.....In cash....that you can walk 5 feet away and see for free.

This place doesn't know what it wants to be. Doesn't understand customer service, and has absolutely unintelligible pricing.....otherwise it could be awesome

The whole family had such a fun day here. Ropes / obstacle courses, ziplining, Alpine slide, vertical drop, bag jump, were all super fun. Not to mention the EXTREME TUBING was awesome. And the Flying Ace jump show was definitely the highlight. Highly recommended for a day of outdoor activities.

Terrible experience with my 7 year old. Free museum was really neat, so we decided to try a ride or two. Rides were not all open so we picked the ropes course. We paid, then got to the course before they turned us back for gear. We went to get gear, and they turned us away for not having closed toed shoes. I wish they had told me the rules before I paid. I would not have offered the course my kids if I had known they were ineligible. I had to do the walk of shame for a refund in what should have been a memorable experience. I would suggest a different venue for family fun...

I remember watching the Salt Lake Olympics when I was younger. It was neat to go to the free museum, and see the athletes that I remember competing. There was a lot of fun stuff to see and do.
