Nestled between the Wasatch Mountains and the Great Salt Lake, the city transforms as early as March. Verdant landscapes emerge, bursting into vibrant colors with the first blossoms, while the snow-capped peaks remain.
The Utah State Capitol, perched on Capitol Hill, has housed the state government since 1916 and offers guided tours daily. Each year, in early April, its Yoshino cherry trees bloom, creating a spectacular spring display.
Nature lovers will find spring to be the perfect time to witness wildlife and wildflowers on Antelope Island. The largest island in the Great Salt Lake, it is a haven of biodiversity, home to bisons, antelopes, and migratory birds. Just a 45-minute drive from the city, the island offers hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding opportunities.
As the sports season* winds down, festivals and cultural events take center stage, including the Utah Arts Festival, the Living Traditions Festival, and bustling farmers’ markets.
A perfect blend of nature and urban charm, Salt Lake City in spring is as peaceful as it is inspiring.
* In the heart of downtown, the Delta Center is home to the NBA’s Utah Jazz and the NHL’s Utah Hockey Club.
