Grouse Mountain
Grouse Mountain is Vancouver’s most visited year-round natural attraction, located just 15 minutes from downtown. You can enjoy panoramic views as you travel to the pristine, alpine environment aboard the iconic Skyride or new Blue Grouse Gondola. Enjoy thrilling outdoor adventures, cultural activities, and educational experiences, which are available year-round at your own expense.

Year-round, you can enjoy our Mountaintop Chalet, which includes great dining options, the Theatre in the Sky, and two gift shops for souvenirs and clothing, at your own expense.

In the summer months (June through September), choose to visit our grizzly bear habitat, take in a Birds in Motion demonstration, ride our Peak Chairlift, and add on Mountain Ropes and Ziplines for an add-on fee.

In snowy winter (December through April), opt to pay for the stunning light installations on the Light Walk, the slopes at the Sliding Zone, an outdoor skating pond, snowshoeing, and more.
