This Is The Place Heritage Park

This Is The Place Heritage Park is the Place for FUN all year round! Step back in time and see the West as it was in the early settlement of Utah. Ride one of three trains, the Jupiter, Blackhawk or the 119, as they tour around the Park. Or enjoy a ride around the pond on the Mini Train. City kids will love riding ponies, meeting and petting farm animals don't forget to try your skill at milking Clara Bell the Cow.

In 2015 treasure seekers young and old will love the new interactive feature, The Treasure House. This new site tells the story of mining in Utah through hands-on experiences. Dig for gemstones in Prospectors Pit, and then identify your rocks at the Assay Station. Pan for gold in the creek under the shady oaks. There is no excitement quite like finding a shiny nugget hiding amongst the silt and sand. Choose a giant geode and help break it in our Geode Cracker! Inside the Treasure House look down into a mining pit and see miners at work! And play fun games to learn more about the role mining played in the settlement of the West. From the Treasure House you can climb up to a look out and see all the way to the Oquirrh Mountains and the Coppermine! "Set sail" on the Ship Brooklyn, a one-sixth replica of the original that tells the story of the expedition of pioneers who sailed from New York Harbor over 24,000 miles in search of a new home in the West.
