Grouse Mountain
Calling itself the "Peak of Vancouver", Grouse Mountain offers stunning views from its mountaintop perch. On a clear day, you can see Vancouver’s downtown towers, shimmering in the water below you, as well as Stanley Park, Frazer Valley, and east across the Strait of Georgia to Vancouver Island.
In summer, the Skyride gondola whisks you up to its 1,110m (3,642-ft.) summit, where passengers can access restaurants, lumberjack shows, alpine hiking trails and a grizzly bear refuge. You can also avoid the gondola and harden your calf muscles on the Grouse Grind, a steep 2.9km/1.8 mi wilderness trek that takes most people around 90 minutes.
In winter, Grouse becomes the locals' favorite snowy playground. Family-friendly Grouse offers 26 ski and snowboard runs, an outdoor ice-skating rink and a large helping of Christmastime shenanigans – if you’re looking for Santa in Vancouver, this is where you’ll find him. Night skiing is popular here; there are plenty of lessons available for beginners and the snowshoe park is excellent.
