Your next family vacation in Utah will certainly be exciting! Adventurous travelers will love this rugged southwestern state, known for its winter skiing, multiple National Parks, and overall stunning scenery. When the weather gets cold, gather up your gear and head to the St. Regis Deer Valley, one of the best ski-in/ski-out resorts in the United States! You can also take advantage of a funicular right outside the resort, plus it’s a ten-minute walk to the Deer Hollow Run. Though many choose to visit during the summer, Utah also houses some of the best National Park to visit with kids during the winter. To avoid massive crowds and unbearable heat, spend your family vacation in Utah exploring Zion National Park, Arches National Park, or Bryce Canyon National Park. If you’d rather warmer weather, you could also visit in April. Utah’s National Parks are also fantastic spring break destinations for families. 

Since Utah has many National Parks, visit multiple in one trip. We suggest planning a Utah National Park road trip itinerary for families. Or, take an extended vacation by consulting our one-week itinerary in Bryce and Zion with kids or our 16-day National Park itinerary for families. If you have a fourth-grader in your family, don’t forget your free fourth-grade National Park pass! Parents with young children won’t be left out, either. In the summer, families can also experience the best things to do in Moab with kids.  Enjoy 4×4 adventures, white-water rafting, animal encounters, and more fun! No matter what time of year you visit, Utah’s vast natural landscape also makes it wonderful.  Rent an RV, pack up your belongings, and hit the open road for the ultimate getaway!
