We had a group of 6 ranging from 14 to 60 years old and everyone had a great time. The ride up to the yurt is picturesque and we felt that we were in good hands with Syd. Dinner was good and the team hosting us was very attentive. Perhaps the best part is getting to know other families around the campfire and on the wagon. Super easy to book and sign waivers. Highly recommend!

Our corporate event was terrific at the Nordic Yurt. We rode wagons to the Yurt and, while there experienced a delicious meal interaction with the wranglers and a spectacular view. The coordination and service were excellent.

Our group of 4 had a great experience with our snowshoe/dinner at the Nordic Yurt. Wes, Marissa and Sam were very professional and engaging. They provided us with a fun snowshoe out and back, a delicious meal and a relaxing, enjoyable evening from start to finish.

The Nordic Yurt dinner was a memorable experience. We enjoyed snowshoeing to the YURT, at a very comfortable pace. We loved exploring soldier hollow by day and by moonlight. Dinner was delicious and served at a casual pace that allowed us to enjoy the fire, explore outside and take in the breathtaking views. 100% must do!

A wonderful snowshoe walk to a beautiful yurt. The staff, Chris and Claire, could not have been nicer. Main course and dessert were wonderful, but the appetizer needs work. Would loved to have a nice warm soup.

This excursion was my favorite evening of our spring break trip this year. We had never been snowshoeing before, and this was a great way to give it a try. The snowshoeing to the Yurt was a fun adventure - not too difficult, but gave us a mini-workout before we set down to the delicious 4-course dinner. The staff (extra special shout out to Claire!) were amazing - friendly and informative. They gave us a great run down of the dinner courses which were all sourced from local businesses. We had plenty of time between courses to hang outside on the deck by the fire pits, talk with our friends and enjoy the gorgeous views of the Heber Valley. I highly recommend this excursion to anyone that loves to get out in nature, try something new and enjoy fantastic food and atmosphere!

We had the best time! I had organized 15 couples for a Valentine's dinner and Kate and WAO Nordic Yurt exceeded our expectations! It was a cold but absolutely gorgeous night! The snowshoeing portion was absolutely perfect. It gave us the feel of actually trekking into the yurt without it being too strenuous. The snowshoe equipment was fantastic and stayed on all of our feet! The yurt was really nice and the fireplaces outside were so nice. Many of my friends said this was one of the best experiences of their lives! We are already scheming up our next visit!

My husband and I did this for Valentines this year 2023. We are celebrating 40 years together by doing things for the first time. This snowshoeing Nordic Yurt dinner adventure was amazing. Staff is very helpful and fun. They make you feel like you're part of the family. And the food is wonderful! Highly recommend!

When I first saw the \\\"Dinner at the Yurt\\\" promotion, I never knew how wonderful it would be. A snowshoeing adventure and a four course dinner. After I had registered for the event I was amazed at the friendliness and patience as I ask numerous question. They covered my parties dietary needs and the dinner was 4 stars and the service and presentation was 5 stars. Claire, Kris and Sammie were the 5star hosts and they went above and beyond expected service. I and my companion are in our seventies and the snowshoeing was the adventure we expected.We were not as fast as the younger member of the group but we were able to keep up. Enjoy an adventure that you can only find in the great winter mountains of the Hebei Valley at the Yurt at Soldier Hollow in the Wasatch Mountain State Park,

This was a great experience! Our company held it's 20 year anniversary at the yurt. Despite the weather being insane, we were cozy inside the warm yurt with the cheerful and fun staff. The food was tasty and unique. So fun

FUN and MEMORABLE night at WAO's Soldier Hollow Yurt for dinner. Led by wonderful guides, we snowshoed in to a beautiful yurt for a delicious 4-course meal. The dining staff was so friendly and the food delish. I loved the sparkling lights of the yurt greeting us and appreciated that each party/group had their own private table. This was my family's holiday \\\"gift\\\" and all four of us had a fantastic time. It's a memory that I'll cherish for a long time. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a unique and adventurous night. THANK YOU!

WONDERFUL experience at the Soldier Hollow Yurt Dinner!! A nice shoe shoe on a groomed trail into a beautiful, inviting hut - they are awaiting you with the fireplaces on, charcuterie ready and a great 4 course meal, complete with smores and hot chocolate. Excellent for a special, romantic occasion or would be fun for a group to celebrate a birthday etc. I highly recommend!

Bryan is the best! I was the winner with 4 fish caught. Fly Fishing taught by a pro and genuinely good guy. Highly recommended WAO Fly Fishing if you're in the Park City, Heber, or Provo areas!

Brian, our guide, was super knowledgeable and about the easiest going guy of all time. He made the chilling cold day super care free and we bagged some browns. Would recommend!

WAO provided a fantastic fly fishing experience. My guide, Brian, knew exactly where to fish and what flies to use. I caught 30 nice rainbows and browns in an afternoon. Bryan provided lots of helpful tips and techniques and was a great host. I really enjoyed the experience and I’m sure you will too.
