With a number of great theme parks, historical sites, city parks and outdoors fun, Provo offers something for everyone. Of course, one of the most popular destinations is the Utah Lake State Park, with over 90,000 acres of lake, mountains surrounding and perfect temperatures.

Fishing is a thrill as you get a wide choice of great fishing holes in numerous trout steams. You’ll have no lack of adventure!
