Things to Do in Heber Valley Utah for Active Families
If you are going to visit Utah, you can’t miss Heber Valley! While it’s close to Park City, Utah, so many people don’t know anything about it. Heber Valley is the perfect destination for active families and people who love to be outdoors. That is why we were so excited to take 3 days and see all that Heber Valley had to offer. It was so easy to get our family unplugged for three days as the valley offers some serious fun!
My husband and I decided years ago that we while we were raising kids, we wanted to spend our money on experiences rather than things. A study from Cornell University showed happiness from possessions faded quickly, while joy from experiences actually increases, even the further away you get from the event. (article). Not only that, talking about the experiences makes you even MORE happy! (article) These experiences at Heber Valley are definitely worth the money!

This trip was organized by the Heber Valley Chamber of Commerce. Our excursions were provided free of charge, but we definitely want to go back and do it all over again.
