About This Adventure

Historic Park City’s Main Street is a charming Victorian-era district packed with art galleries, boutiques, restaurants, museums and the iconic free trolley that runs the full length of the street. The entire experience is free (shops and museum may charge admission), and it’s the perfect self-paced 3–4 hour cultural outing.

Why We Love It

It’s quintessential Park City: mountain-town history, beautiful architecture, local culture and easy access via free trolley—all without spending a dime.

What To Expect

  • Self-guided stroll of historic storefronts and galleries
  • Wave down the trolley anywhere along the route
  • Explore local shops, art galleries, cafés and museums
  • Plan 3–4 hours to shop, visit museum, grab a bite and ride trolley

Don't Miss

  • Hopping on the free trolley and waving it down anywhere along Main Street
  • Exploring Park City Museum’s mining‑town legacy exhibits
  • Seeing a show or film at the Egyptian Theatre listing historic architecture and culture

Insider Tips

  • Weekday late morning or early afternoon offers lighter foot traffic
  • Join the free trolley instead of walking back uphill
  • Browse lesser-known art galleries tucked off the main drag
  • Check Park City Museum hours before visit
  • Pick up a printed map at visitor center to avoid missing gems

Reality Check

Parking on Main Street is scarce, especially during events—rely on the free trolley or be prepared to walk from garage lots.
