How the new Provo Scenic Skiway designation is elevating access to premier resorts from Provo Airport through Provo Canyon to Park City
A strategic new initiative is reshaping how travelers access Utah’s world-class mountain destinations. On December 18, 2025, the Provo Scenic Skiway designation was officially announced at Provo Airport, establishing U.S.-189 from Provo through Provo Canyon and into Park City as a named scenic route that highlights direct access to some of the region’s most sought-after ski and outdoor lifestyle experiences.
The road also leads to some of the most iconic listings by the Frost Lindner Team at Vue Christie’s International Real Estate. Check out some of our listings along the route:
Camelot, 2344 W 3000 S – Located between US 189 and Midway in the charming area known as Charleston, this private mountain ranch estate is set on 27 manicured acres with sweeping views of the Wasatch Mountains and Heber Valley.

The new highway name builds on Provo Airport’s growing role as an alternative gateway to the Wasatch Back, with a drive time of about 33 minutes to Sundance Mountain Resort and competitive access to Deer Valley ski resort and Park City luxury real estate markets.
The collaboration between local governments, ski resorts, and tourism partners like Visit Park City and Visit Heber Valley underscores a unified effort to make mountain travel more seamless – a priority for visitors considering everything from ski in ski out estates to gated golf communities in nearby Wasatch Front communities.
The designation not only celebrates scenic beauty but also reinforces the connectivity between legacy property ownership regions such as Heber Valley and the resort corridors of Park City and Deer Valley. For those considering relocation or investment, improved travel corridors enhance lifestyle access while supporting tourism and real estate demand across these premium markets.
Provo Airport’s ongoing expansion, including a planned increase from four to ten gates, signals long-term growth in both domestic and international visitation that benefits ski-focused and year-round experiences alike.
For buyers and sellers evaluating new construction Park City Utah, Park City real estate trends, or lifestyle-driven mountain homes, this scenic designation highlights how regional infrastructure evolves alongside market dynamics.
The Provo Scenic Skiway initiative reinforces Utah’s position as a premier mountain destination with practical access, scenic drives, and strategic growth that align with elevated living and investment priorities.
