Heber Valley is nestled in a mountain valley just south of Park City and approximately 45 minutes from Salt Lake City International Airport. Access is easy via I-80 to major state highway US-40, which passes directly through Heber Valley. This means you can catch a plane in the morning and be hiking, biking, skiing, snowmobiling, or simply relaxing in our beautiful valley by early afternoon.
The Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC) is only 45 minutes away from Heber Valley. The airport is the second largest hub for Delta Airlines with no stop lights and all easy freeway access direct from airport to Heber Valley.
The Provo Municipal Airport (PVU) is located an easy 44 minutes away from Heber Valley. This general aviation airfield services scheduled commercial flights with onsite businesses, parking, and amenities.
For those with access to private planes, Heber City has its own airport, the Heber Valley General Aviation Airport (KHCR). This is only 2 miles from the center of Heber City, paralleling US Hwy-189. Most planes that land here are small airplanes, rather than jetliners or helicopters. Sailplanes and gliders also lift off from the Heber Valley Airport, as well as hot air balloons. Due to the valley's high elevation and arid climate, the air is particularly good for gliding and balloons.

Considered a high-altitude desert state, the heat in Utah is very dry making it more comfortable for most visitors than a humid climate. Summer nights remain cool and comfortable. Due to this unique combination of desert landscape and elevation, Utah is known for having “The Greatest Snow on Earth” in the winter months as the precipitation turns into a lighter snowfall and makes the snowpack softer and more ideal for ski conditions.
