Blue Grouse Gondola
Now open!
Grouse Mountain's new state-of-the-art gondola officially opened on December 12, 2024.
The gondola features a total of 15 towers and 27 eight-person gondola cabins, and a trip time of 5.5 minutes, allowing the new lift to operate at an initial capacity of 1,000 people per hour on a continuous loop.
Since the world’s first double chairlift was built at the Resort in 1949, Grouse Mountain has had a rich history of investing in modern recreational technology. The installation of a new gondola will support continued investment in the world-class experience Grouse Mountain offers and ensure Vancouver’s number one natural attraction is accessible for generations to come.
Skiing & Snowboarding
Visitors have been flocking here since our first official season in 1926 to enjoy the best downhill sports. With 33 ski and snowboard runs, 15 night runs, 4 chairlifts, 6 terrain parks, 9km of snowshoe trails and the North Shore's most extensive snowmaking system, Grouse Mountain is the City's playground, right here in your own backyard. Grouse Mountain's "The Cut" was named a top 100 run in the world by CNN Travel.
Terrain Parks
Grouse Mountain is home to up to four terrain parks that attract skiers and riders of all ability levels and ages from across BC and around the world. Whether you are new to freestyle terrain or you are a seasoned veteran, you will find features that match your ability and progression level.
