BRIGHTON BIKE PARK

MOUNTAIN BIKING

We’re building momentum—literally! Brighton’s bike park just leveled up with a new lift, two beginner trails, and a smooth intermediate line for riders ready to progress. It’s our biggest summer yet and we’re only picking up speed.

CHAMPIONSHIP-LEVEL COURSES

DISC GOLF

Brighton’s disc golf scene is climbing the mountain and the charts! Our championship-level course is earning a spot among Utah’s best with tight lines, big views and technical variety for every kind of player. Both courses offer multiple tee pads and a high-alpine challenge worth the trip.
