Fall is right around the corner! The air is starting to get a little crisp in the morning and it has me dreaming of everything we’ll be doing this fall from corn mazes to seeing the fall foliage. Here’s your guide to Halloween and fall activities in Utah in 2022.
Utah Fall Activity #1 – Chalk the Block

Chalk The Block is going on August 25-27th at the Riverwoods in Provo. There are a bunch of artists here who do chalk art in a parking spot. It’s amazing to see how talented they are and what they come up with for their design.
2. Oktoberfest at Snowbird

Oktoberfest takes place at Snowbird and it’s open Saturdays and Sundays plus Labor Day August 13 – October 16, 2022 12-6pm. Admission is free, but parking is $10 per car. Oktoberfest has the best kettle corn, so make sure to grab a bag while you’re there.
This is one of the first fall activities in Utah to kick off. We like going here early in the season before all the other activities are open.

3. Alpine Slides in Park City

This is one of the most fun activities! You’ll purchase your tickets at the Park City Mountain Village base, then ride the ski lift up part of the mountain. In the fall there are beautiful aspen trees that have turned yellow that are so fun to see while riding the ski lift.
You’ll jump off the ski lift part of the way up and walk to the top of the slides. Then you’ll ride down and have tons of fun!
The Alpine Slides at Park City costs $25 per adult and $15 per child. I can’t find their exact hours and what date they close for the season, so I suggest calling to see if they’re open when you want to go.
4. Buy Apple Cider
Allred Orchards in Provo has apple cider, apples and other fresh produce you can buy. This apple cider is so fresh and delicious.
5. Visit the Pumpkin Patch
There are tons of these in the area, but our favorites are Mabey Pumpkin Patch 10090 S 1000 W, South Jordan, UT 84095 and Kuwahara’s 12153 S 700 W, Draper, UT.
Mabey opens September 24th and stays open till Halloween. Kuwahara has really cool pumpkin walls to take pictures with. They haven’t announced dates for 2022 yet.
6. Gardner Village Witchfest
This event happens mid-September through October. It is so much fun to walk around here and see all the unique Halloween decorations they have. You can also do their witch scavenger hunt, which we love doing.
On weekends they have a farmers market and food trucks. They have events throughout the month like Witch’s Night Out. This is a really fun Halloween event!
7. Go to Cornbelly’s

The dates for Cornbelly’s at Thanksgiving Point in Lehi for 2022 aren’t up yet. This is our favorite of the fall activities in Utah! We love the corn maze here and the huge rocking chair. We get a picture in it every year.
Use code morganboulevard for $3 off per ticket in 2022!
Cornbelly’s has a second location in Spanish Fork. Their sunflower festival will be September 2-19, 2022. After that they’ll have a Fall Fest with a corn maze, pumpkins, and more fall fun.
8. Sundance Ski Lift Full Moon Ride
The Full Moon Ride takes place on August 9, 10, September 8-10, and October 7, and 8. Bring lots of blankets and dress warm! It gets very cold at Sundance at night. The ride takes 45-60 minutes.
9. Sundance Ski Lift Halloween Ride
We’ve done both the full moon ride and the Halloween ride. They’re both fun, but Halloween is our favorite! It can be a little scary and creepy though, so this isn’t something I recommend doing with kids.
For the Halloween ones they have people doing skits below you that you watch along the way. Like I said for the full moon ride, bring blankets and dress very warm!
10. Drive the Alpine Loop

The Alpine Loop drive is a perfect Utah fall activity. The colors of the leaves on this drive are unreal! You’ll see every shade of red, orange, yellow, and green on this scenic drive.
We always stop at Cascade Springs to walk around. There are little waterfalls here and a path to walk around. We brought a stroller last year and it worked, but was hard to push up some of the hills.
11. Go Apple Picking
After you pick your apples, go home and bake a pie with them. If you’re not into baking, then go get an apple pie from Costco. They’re even vegan! We pick apples at Riley’s U-Pick Farm in American Fork. They do free wagon rides out to the apple trees on Mondays, Fridays, and Saturdays. Their honey crisp ones are our fave!
12. Paint Halloween decorations

One year at Color Me Mine we painted some Jack-o-lanterns and they’re some of our favorite Halloween decorations we have.
13. Go to a Haunted House
Nightmare on 13th is usually open for some of September and all of October, I’m not sure what they’re doing for 2022 though. There are plenty of other haunted houses too.
14. Go to the Haunted Circus
I’m way too scared to go to the fall activities in Utah like this, but I know some people love it. The Strangling Boys Haunted Circus is located in American Fork and are open for dates from September 10th to October 30, 2022.
15. Swiss Days
Swiss Days is a fun festival to walk around and shop at in Midway. Swiss Days is in September, usually over Labor Day weekend. Festivals like this are so fun!
This is another of the first fall activities in Utah to happen each year. It’s fun to drive up the canyon to get here and see some fall colors.
16. Boo Lights at the Zoo
Boo Lights takes place at the Hogle Zoo on a few different days in October. You can take a look at their website for more info and specific dates when it gets closer.
17. Scarecrow Walk
The Scarecrow Walk is a free activity that’s setup 7 days a week. You can walk around and look at all the scarecrows that are decorated differently. It’s at the Homestead Resort in Heber. I haven’t seen dates for when this starts and ends, so hopefully they’ll have it on their website soon.

We did this one year and it was very cold! Make sure to dress warm and bring a blanket if you’d like.

The Day of the Dead is a one day Latin American celebration at Thanksgiving Point. There are vendors, ofrendas, and performances. It’s at the Show Barn.

The pumpkin train starts on October 7th and goes through October 30th. It doesn’t run everyday though. You’ll ride in a historic coach for 40 minutes and get a free pumpkin.
The Heber Valley Railroad has other fun train rides in October too, like their Halloween train and Wizard’s train. The only one we’ve done was the pumpkin train, but we’re hoping to do the other ones soon!
30. Hee Haw Farms
Hee Haw Farms fall family friendly activities will start sometime in September. Admission is $10. The farm has a pumpkin patch, a corn maze, a petting farm, an animal train, and more.
We love going here! It’s not nearly as busy as some of the other corn mazes/farms in the area and it has a lot of different things to do.
