Description:
Swaner is a 1200-acre island of natural habit, and a wilderness stronghold among the ever-expanding neighborhoods of Park City. Invited by unadulterated, open space otherwise displaced species make this a permanent home or migratory resting place.
If you prefer to play outdoors, you can take a hike along the 10+ miles of trails to observe the flora and fauna. Or if you desire a higher speed, bring a mountain bike and ride on some of Park City's most pleasant, buffed trails.
Those who want to learn a bit more can head into the EcoCenter where these natural surroundings are examined and explained by way of illustrations, videos, and exhibits of the interactive variety.
