    Closer to Salt Lake City — but a world away — lies the phenomenon that is the Bonneville Salt Flats. And just 25 minutes from downtown is Little Cottonwood Canyon, the perfect spot for hiking and outdoor activities. Visit Albion Basin to see the famous meadow of wildflowers, which will be in peak bloom during the Crossroads of the World International Trade Summit. There are plenty of other trails to explore in the canyons near Salt Lake.

    Historic Park City is just a 45-minute drive away! Home of the Sundance Film Festival, Park City offers beautiful mountain views, outdoor activities, galleries, theaters, and an iconic main street.
