Salt, salt, everywhere! |
7200 West Lake Point (I-80 Exit 111) Salt Lake City, UT 84074 United States +1 801 250 1898 / +1 435 773 2941 |
This area has been popular with bathers since the Mormon Pioneers first arrived in the basin in the middle of the 19th century. Although no swimming ability is necessary (the high salt content of the water keeps even non-swimmers afloat), bathers should be aware that the super-salty water may irritate throat, eyes and nose. A small visitors' center offers a museum, local information and a video about the lake, while the private SaltAir development provides a few shops, some food outlets and space for concerts and other events.

Located on Historical Main Street in the old City Hall Building, this small museum offers an outstanding display documenting the city's past. Here, guests see life-sized mock-ups of a pioneer carriage, a local mine shaft and a radio booth before heading downstairs to see the stark, damp cells of the old city jail. Visitors should be sure to examine the informative historical panorama describing Park City fires and should stock up on brochures and other printed information before exiting.
