The mid-mountain Stein Eriksen Lodge is a luxury mecca for outdoor-activity lovers. No matter the season, recreational opportunities abound at this Five-Star hotel. Here are the five best things to do near the lodge:

1. Ski Deer Valley. If you’re fortunate enough to visit the hotel during ski season, plan to hit the slopes. Stein Eriksen is located in Deer Valley Resort’s Silver Lake area, with ski-in/ski-out access to world-renowned skiing. As one of the best ski resorts in the country, it would be a shame to miss it — especially when it’s right outside your door.

2. Hit the bike trails. In the summer, those famed Deer Valley ski runs are transformed into hardcore mountain biking trails. Plus, there are more than 400 miles of maintained trails in Park City, so cyclists of all levels should be able to find a thrill to match their skill.

3. Shop and eat on Main Street. Stein Eriksen Lodge is only minutes from Old Town Park City, with its gourmet restaurants, art galleries and boutiques. The area has a thriving nightlife too, so grab a seat at one of Main Street’s bars and clubs, and settle down for a night of celebrity spotting.

4.Go golfing. The high altitude at Park City’s mountain golf courses is said to give golfers a length advantage. Stein Eriksen Lodge is affiliated with five golf clubs, which includes the Jeremy Ranch Country Club, Promontory Ranch Club, Victory Ranch Club, Park Meadows Country Club and Red Ledges Club.

5. Cast a reel fly-fishing. Set aside a full or half-day to go fly-fishing with a professional guide on the Provo River. The guide will provide transportation, equipment rental and lunch. The Provo River is rated one of the top ten trout streams in America.
