Your Summer Starts at Brighton
Hit new mountain bike trails, toss a disc, catch live music, or just soak in the views—there’s something for everyone at Brighton this summer.
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.
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.
APRÈS ISN'T SEASONAL
In summer, it’s backyard-style BBQs, cold beers on sun-drenched patios, and live music under alpine skies all shared with a community that knows how to kick back. At Brighton, the summer vibe runs deep, and the good times are always in season.
