Living in Alta, UtahVideo tour · The Brokerage Co.A Legendary Mountain Town
Alta real estate is limited and unique. Most properties are condos, lodge-style units and a small number of mountain homes, which is a big part of what keeps the town so quiet.
Skiing is the main draw. Alta Ski Area is right in town, and the snow here is some of the most talked-about in the country.
Summers bring wildflowers, hiking and cooler temperatures, and the Salt Lake Valley is a drive down the canyon when you need the city.
