When you hear of Sundance rentals, it might conjure up images of celebrities attending the popular independent film festival. About 30 miles south of Park City, where the Sundance Film Festival is held is a secluded resort in Provo, Utah, that lies along the breathtaking Wasatch mountain range. Being farther away from the tourist haven resorts in Park City, Sundance can offer you the same getaway without having to deal with the crowds. Its landscapes are pretty in every season, but with its alpine vistas, Sundance is enchanting during the wintertime. Below are what you can expect to enjoy at this Utah hideaway:
Skiing and Snowboarding
With 3 chair lifts and 41 picturesque trails, Sundance is an open invitation for everyone to conquer its slopes. While more skillful skiers would certainly not be disappointed, Sundance has skiing lessons available for determined beginners: kids and adults alike. There are even ski racing events to make your visit more fun. Snowboarders can also have a blast discovering and riding on the powdery terrain around the resort. Ski magazines know what they're talking about when they shower this gem of a resort with praises.
Snowshoeing
Hikers and runners also have a place of their own at Sundance. There is no need to stay holed up in your Sundance rental when you can slip into those snowshoes. You can just go grab your poles and enjoy a 6 mile trek along the back country of Mount Timpanogos. If you want to kick it up a notch, you can also take a snowshoe tour at night. Wildlife lovers can marvel at the live owls that are called by nature experts, who also serve as guides for these evening tours. With all the available equipment rentals at the resort, you and your family can indulge in this leisurely-paced winter activity.
Workshops
Sundance is just not about outdoor activities. You can summon out the artist in you through the resort's craft and hobby workshops. Offered daily, you can go to the Sundance Art Shack and get your hands busy with pottery, painting, drawing and other activities. Not only will you get a relaxing break from the winter cold, you can bring home a souvenir or two from your vacation.
Photography
The postcard perfect snow-capped mountains, quaint wood cabins and tree-lined woods can delight even the casual photographer. You can spend the day capturing these exquisite winter scenes that might come as bonus in some secluded Sundance vacation rentals. There are even more interesting perspectives when you go up to the higher elevations, so it helps to have a small camera on hand when you go skiing or trekking; you can be ready to take pictures anytime.
