If you could imagine the perfect resort and spa for adventure — and nature-lovers, what would you envision? A stunning location, built-in view of some of the most jaw-dropping geological features you’ve never seen before? Word-class shops to browse? Some of the most enviable opportunities for outdoor recreation that attracts people from all over the world? A balance between adrenaline-spiking adventure and blissful relaxation? A rooftop hot tub and pool perched among the clouds, where you can unwind in direct view of the mountains, so close you can almost touch them? World-class accommodations and dining? Five-star spa services and treatments such as facials, manicures, and stone massages? Remote and secluded in a world of its own, but within easy driving distance of a major airport?
You must be talking about the iconic Cliff Lodge at Snowbird, of course! No matter how active or lazily luxurious you want your trip to be, the Lodge is a haven located 25 miles outside Salt Lake City, Utah.
First and foremost, we have to talk about the beauty of the area and the views? The location is everything. You are in the inexplicably stunning Little Cottonwood Canyon — where the highway winds through soaring, steep cliffs on either side to the dreamy Snowbird Resort. All around you, the mountains tower, and no matter what time of year you visit, they will not disappoint your happy eyeballs. Whether crowned with glistening white snow, lush with springtime greenery, or aflame with autumnal colors, the Wasatch Mountains are glorious.—

The many fun and luxurious things to do at the Cliff Lodge
Putting the surreal spa aside (which is hard to do), you will have more than enough at your fingertips in terms of activities, shopping, and dining within the enormous walls of the Cliff Lodge, and will want for nothing.There are boutiques to browse and sports and gear outlets to rent or buy any necessary equipment for your outdoor adventures. For your convenience, there are multiple grocery outlets and restaurants to select from. The 10th floor’s The Aerie has floor-to-ceiling glass windows so you don’t have to have the mountains out of sight, and offers a luxurious fine dining experience. There are several other dining environments, varying from casual and sophisticated throughout the place to take your pick from!
And we just covered what’s inside the Cliff Lodge.
We’ve merely scratched the surface, because what is available to you outside is the real reason to choose this cliffside resort. Snowbird is an incredibly popular ski resort and world-renowned four-season recreation destination. Utah terrain is at its finest here. Ski, snowboard, mountain bike, trail run, hike — what is your choice? Take lessons, sign your kids up for programs, zipline, or attend one of the festivals and events such as the famous Oktoberfest. You won’t be bored here if you tried!
