Sunday Drive - Brian Head

For this week’s Sunday Drive, we loaded up the car and we took the roughly hour-and-a-half drive up to Brianhead.

Brianhead is usually a ski resort, and it’s probably best known for that. But what do you do with a ski resort that’s gone dry for the season? Well, I can’t speak for everyone, but what Brianhead did was they turned themselves into an excellent mountain biking trail!

From top to bottom, there are several different tracks to take with different difficulty spikes on them. This means that no matter your skillset or ability with mountain biking, the trip down promises to be an exciting one!

I personally was enamored by the spectacular views from the top. I swear the world just kept on going for a while there. Every time I thought I saw the horizon line, a new one showed up just behind it. Hopefully it’s not too bold to say, but it was magical!

The drive itself is pretty chill. You get to see our red rocks turn into evergreen forests and drive some of the prettiest roads I’ve seen in a while. Driving enthusiasts will get a kick out of the winding turns and the ups and downs of the road that moves with the landscape.

And once you get there, there’s no shortage of stuff to do. I talked specifically about mountain biking, but there’s also swimming and shopping and camping and overall just enjoying the landscape.

So this weekend, when you’re off on your Sunday drive, we recommend you check out Brianhead!
