The Feel of the Place
Why People Love Living in Alpine
Alpine was settled in 1850 as "Mountainville," and it still feels that way: big lots, custom homes, horses in some backyards, and Box Elder Peak and Lone Peak right overhead. Many neighborhoods connect straight to trails.
Lambert Park's trail network, Dry Creek and Horsetail Falls, and American Fork Canyon are all close by. Alpine Days brings the town together every August. Highland and American Fork, under 10 minutes away, cover groceries and dining.
