Historic Rossie Hill

Rossie Hill is a quiet residential section of Park City directly adjacent to Old Town Main Street. It's known for its beautiful charm and proximity to the city's vibrant center. 

In the early days, many miners migrated to Park City, including laborers from Rossie, New York, who came to work in local mines and build homes on what became known as Historic Rossie Hill. According to local historians, it was a collection of multiple points of interest, including railroads, mining, and prostitution. A railroad spur once ran up on what is now Rossie Hill Drive and the city’s infamous red-light district once thrived nearby.

Rossie Hill overlooks Historic Park City which itself is nestled in a charming Utah valley flanked by Park City Mountain Resort on one side, and Deer Valley  Resort on the other.  This historic mining town serves as the modern-day center of all that is fun, beautiful, traditional, and adventurous. Since silver was first discovered in these hills, there have been countless moments of booms, busts, fires, and freezes, and the town's adventurous spirit perseveres. On and among these historic hills, are droves and droves of open space, treasured sanctuaries, mining claims, and epic stories. More than 300 mines once operated in Park City, with the last silver mine closing in 1982. Twenty historic mine structures still exist today, many can been seen while skiing, hiking or mountain biking the trails.

Today, Rossie Hill enjoys it's peaceful hillside prominence with protected open space for wildlife. And set just a bit off Deer Valley Drive, it still offers serene living with enchanting views of the mountains & valley, and yet just steps away from the town's core.  As such, Rossie Hill makes an ideal base camp for exploring and experiencing the greater Park City surroundings, including Deer Valley and beyond.
