Salt Lake

Another great place to go when on a family vacation in Utah is the capital which is Salt Lake City. Surrounded by mountains and other memorable scenic views, it has many things to offer a family out to have fun.

For one, if you go during the winter then you can do fun activities such as going skiing.

Goblin Valley State Park

If you want to go somewhere that is ideal for camping, then think about going to Goblin Valley State Park. It has a 19-site campground which means there’s plenty of room for you to get out your camping gear and have storytelling around the campfire.

You will also find evocative goblins, which are 2ft to 20ft tall formations that kids tend to love climbing up and down. You will, however, need to bring your own food and water to complete the camping experience.

This is a great chance to laugh as a family as well as learn more about one another. It’s also a perfect way to create unforgettable memories that you can look back on and smile. This is the start of a wonderful Family Vacation in Utah!

    I have a 3 and a half year old. I would like to make the best of his summer before he starts to go to school. He is at such a wonderful age curious and excitable. I dont want it to be a long trip lol for obvious reasons but I do want it to be easy for him to remember.
