Things To Do

Regions

Wasatch Front is a region in the northern head of the state. It is densely populated since the capital, Salt Lake City, is in this region. West of the Wasatch Front is a secluded terrain. It is the perfect place to go offbeat and explore the raw beauty of nature.

The western region is the land of golden sands. It is practically a desert area with mining towns sprinkled throughout. There are places on this earth that seem to be alien, and Utah is one such place. Moreover, it is the Canyon Country in this state that makes it so unique. The spectacular, tranquil atmosphere coupled with the pristine landscape of deserts is a spectacle for all to see.
