Red Butte Garden


Step away from the everyday and immerse yourself in the beauty of Red Butte Garden. University of Utah employees receive free admission—simply check in with your UCard and enjoy a peaceful walk or energizing stroll.

Enhance your visit with wellness-focused classes, including Qigong & Tai Chi, Yoga and Sound Bath, Forest Bathing, Everyday Mindfulness, and more. Classes are held in-person at Red Butte Garden and Arboretum unless otherwise noted.

Explore classes and register on Red Butte Garden’s website.

Earning WellU Credit:

  • Once you’ve checked in on ten different days, you will earn one WellU participation credit.
  • Be sure to tap your UCard at the front desk before attending any of the classes to have your participation recorded towards the 10 required visits.
  • Please note that attending a class does not automatically count as one WellU participation credit but can be applied toward the 10-visit requirement.

Reminder: Red Butte Garden staff cannot track or confirm your total visits, as that information is not stored at the check-in desk. We recommend keeping your own record to ensure you complete the required ten separate visits.

  • Tracking Your Completion:
    Activity completions are reported directly to the WellU Team on a monthly basis. The WellU Team does not have the ability to manually update WellU participation records.
  • If Your Completion Is Missing:
    If your completion is not reflected on your WellU Participation Tracker after 90 days, please contact WellU@utah.edu for assistance.
