The Greatest Snow on Earth™
They say it's the “Greatest snow on Earth” and with an average of over 500 inches of snow a year, their terrific snowmaking is almost redundant! It has been long renowned as the locals best kept secret and has been voted as the number 1 ski and snowboard resort by the population of Utah. Brighton is one of the oldest ski resorts in North America (est. 1936)and it’s the place that the locals go to learn to ski, as it’s easy to get to from Salt Lake City just 30 minutes away. Brighton has 1,050 skiable acres with all terrain accessible by high speed quads, terrain parks, and all expected resort amenities. Brighton’s grooming is five star.
There are over 66 runs served by 7 modern lifts. The majority of the skiing is on tree-lined green, blue and intermediate runs and it really is an excellent choice for school groups. There are wide gentle slopes for beginners and with most of the runs having a number of harder options to get you back down, progression is good. Brighton is also a big snowboarders resort and as an official ‘Burton Lean-to-Ride method centre’ Brighton offers an exceptional learning programme for snowboarding with a huge terrain park.
Our hotels are located in Salt Lake City, one of the most fabulous ski destinations in North America giving you direct access to an amazing variety of apres ski as you'd expect from a major American city and host of 1992 Winter Olympics. You definitely won’t find yourself short of something to do in the evening. As well as all the Olympic attractions there are huge shopping malls, ice skating, museums, the brand new Clark Planetarium and the Utah Jazz basketball team.
