"When Salt Lake City hosted the 2002 Winter Olympics, Deer Valley was at the heart of the action - and in 2034 it will once again take centre stage as the venue for freestyle moguls and aerials. Today, guests at The St. Regis Deer Valley can connect directly to that Olympic legacy through an exclusive partnership with the Utah Olympic Legacy Foundation."
"The hotel's bobsled experience takes visitors onto the very same 2002 Olympic track, with guidance from Olympic silver medalists Valerie Fleming and Shauna Rohbock. After a tour, safety briefing, and practice, guests can ride the track themselves, reaching speeds up to 70 mph and pulling 3Gs through ten curves."
"For sharpshooters, the St. Regis Deer Valley's Olympic Biathlon experience combines a lesson in cross-country skiing or snowshoeing with target shooting under professional supervision. Instructors run competitions on snow in winter."
The Winter Olympics generate global excitement through memorable athletic performances and viral moments. Beyond traditional spectating, the Games highlight lesser-known winter sports including biathlon, ski jumping, and speed skating. Destinations hosting Olympic events now offer visitors hands-on experiences in these disciplines.

The St. Regis Deer Valley offers bobsled rides on the original 2002 Olympic track with instruction from Olympic medalists, reaching speeds up to 70 mph.
