Mirror Lake Scenic Byway - only 15 minutes from the Zermatt Resort and begins in the small town of Kamas near the Gateway Grill, which is a great place to get breakfast before the ride (Utah Byways, National Scenic Byways).

Alpine Loop - Only 15 minutes from the Zermatt Resort halfway between the Heber Valley and Orem/Provo off US 189 and runs right through the famous Sundance Resort (Utah Byways).

Nebo Loop - Only 45 minutes from the Zermatt Resort in Payson.  This byway provides a beautiful ride over Mount Nebo, the tallest mountain in the Wasatch range (Utah Byways, National Scenic Byways).

Francis to Duchesne Ride - Only 10 minutes from the Zermatt Resort.  While not recognized as a scenic byway, and listed on many mapping software and gps maps as an unpaved road, this ride along UT 35 provides a scenic back route to Duchesne with little or no traffic.  Don't miss the Hanna Cafe between Hanna and Tabiona on UT Hwy 35 (and get your "Where the Hell is Hanna" t-shirt).

Ogden River Scenic Byway - Only 30 minutes from the Zermatt Resort with entry points at either Mountain Green or in Ogden.  The routes ends in Woodruff, Wyoming, which is rumored to have the coldest winter temperatures in the continental United States (Utah Byways, National Scenic Byways).

Energy Loop/Eccles Canyon - Just over an hour away from the Zermatt Resort, this ride provides both the fun of a rollercoaster and the scenery one expects on a nationally recognized scenic byway.  Be sure to make a run up the road from Huntington to Electric Lake (Utah Byways, National Scenic Byways).

Logan Canyon/Bear Lake - About 90 minutes away from the Zermatt Resort, this ride runs up from Logan to Bear Lake, where you can get a world famous, hand dipped raspberry shake (Utah Byways, National Scenic Byways).

Combine a few of these routes to make for a wonderful all-day adventure.  Examples include Ogden River/Mirror Lake, Alpine Loop/Nebo Loop, Francis-Duchesne/Energy Loop.
