Ride Historic Heber Valley Railroad

Itinerary tips

• 1Arrive at the Heber City depot at least 30 minutes before departure to ensure smooth boarding and a visit to the small gift shop.
• 2Book tickets for the 'open-air' cars in the summer for unobstructed views and the best photography opportunities of the Provo River.
• 3Schedule 2 to 3 hours for the standard Provo Canyon Limited ride, which covers the most scenic stretch along Deer Creek Reservoir.
• 4Bring a jacket even in summer, as the mountain breezes and shaded canyon stretches can be significantly cooler than the valley floor.
• 5Check the schedule for the 'North Pole Express' during November and December, as these seasonal evening rides sell out months in advance.
• 6Utilize the free street parking surrounding the depot, but double-check local signs for seasonal snow removal restrictions.
