When you want to reach the heights we'll take you there in style by limousine

Before the construction of the original Second Narrows Bridge in 1925, the North Shore was a world apart, linked by ferries from Vancouver to Ambleside in West Vancouver. Hikers in summer and skiers in winter would make their way up the side of Hollyburn Mountain, at first on foot or by wagon, later by car and bus. Cabins were constructed, and trails brushed out. Grouse and Seymour Mountains developed in much the same way, although Grouse Mountain has always been the leader in commercial development.


                                

Located on Vancouver's North Shore, only fifteen minutes from downtown Vancouver and 4,100 feet (1200 m) into the sky, Grouse Mountain is a year-round mountaintop playground, that offers hiking and horseback riding, helicopter tours, mountain biking and paragliding, picnics and logging shows, sleigh rides and skiing...and magical views of the city and its surroundings. Skiing on Grouse Mountain.

Your adventure begins as you step into the Super Skyride, a 100-passenger tram that glides you up the steep mountainside. In eight minutes you're 3,700 feet (1100 m) above sea level and near the top of Grouse Mountain. (The gondola runs year-round, departing every 15 minutes 10 a.m. - 10 p.m. in summer.)
