Resort Information
Who is Solitude for?
At Solitude, secluded stashes of fresh snow are easy to find, and with 82 named runs over 1,200 acres of terrain, you might enjoy a solo lap. As the name suggests, Solitude has incredible, tucked-away areas that stay untouched for days after each storm. Skiers and snowboarders alike are welcome at this highly-renowned but laid-back resort.
Solitude’s latest improvements, including terrain parks and the upgraded high-speed 6-person chairlift, Eagle Express, have increased accessibility and heightened experiences.
Run Tip: Take an easy lap and warm up off the Sunrise and Moonbeam Express lifts, or find expert terrain off Summit, Eagle Express and Powderhorn II lifts.
Parking and Transportation
Parking at Solitude is available on a first-come, first-served basis on weekdays, however reservations are required on Friday, Saturday, Sunday and during holiday periods for guests arriving before 11 a.m. Pricing is tiered depending on the number of occupants. Parties of four or more park for free, always. Cars with three or more park for free on non-holiday weekdays, while smaller parties will pay $10 to $35 depending on the day of the week and time of year. Season parking passes are also available for full season or weekdays only. Check out Solitude’s parking webcam to check crowd conditions before you head out. See more Utah ski vacation tips.
Visitors can also take the UTA Ski Bus (free for Solitude season-pass holders) up the canyon.
Nordic Skiing and Snowshoeing
The Solitude Nordic Center is a well-kept secret. With more than 14 miles of trails for cross-country skiing, skate-style skiing and snowshoeing, there’s plenty of room for Nordic fans. A shuttle runs from the main entrance to the Village, but you can also access trails from the Village side of the Nordic park. Season and day passes are available, as well as guided snowshoe and backcountry tours.

Run Highlights
-
Cathedral Cirque
Looking for mind-blowing powder blanketing expert terrain that lasts days upon days after each winter storm? This terrain area akin to Valhalla is only accessible through a lengthy traverse, reached via Summit Express, that traces a mountain spine nestled alongside Honeycomb Canyon. This mandatory traverse creates a barrier to entry that keeps skier traffic low and the area untouched longer than almost anywhere else within resort boundaries. Once passed, skiers can explore droves of steep powder fields, narrow chutes and even some intense cliff-drops. This terrain is for experts only and should not be explored for the first time without an experienced rider or skier to show you the way. But for those who are up for the challenge, the thrills of this fabled area are well worth the journey.
-
Headwall Forest
Let everyone else enjoy the groomers while you duck out of the crowd and into the trees. Accessed by the Summit lift, Headwall Forest offers some steep tree skiing where there’s seemingly ubiquitous fresh snow, and plenty of options to choose tracks leading to the various chutes. Extend your time on the mountain by traversing across Corner Chute to Evergreen for sweet chute skiing. All told, your entire trip will be about a 1,246-foot vertical drop.
-
Honeycomb Canyon
The off-piste glade and chute skiing has four lift entrances: Summit, Powderhorn II, Eagle Express and Honeycomb. From the Summit Lift, choose skier’s left for the west side or skier’s right for the canyon’s east side. You’ll be skiing on the canyon’s east side from all but the Summit Lift. Hardcore skiers can bootpack to the top of Fantasy Ridge (10,400-foot elevation) from the Summit Lift and hit one of the chutes down to the named runs. Avalanche gear (beacon, shovel, probe and serious know-how) is required to hike Fantasy Ridge. Advanced intermediate skiers have an option here, too: Woodlawn, which cuts through the canyon, is groomed approximately once a week.
-
Serenity
Get a great mix of challenge and pretty views with a trip down the Serenity trail. Start on the Eagle Express lift and ski down the Eagle Ridge run until it turns onto Serenity. The top of this groomed trail is steep but then calms down. It varies from wide to narrow with occasional tree islands popping up to give you a little variety. The vertical drop is about 1,350 feet, but you know you can do it again and again.
