Grouse Mountain: Ride the Gondola or Hike the Grind

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Our evening at **Grouse Mountain** was an amazing experience, even after dark. The mountain offers a peaceful and serene atmosphere, perfect for an evening escape. We enjoyed a tranquil walk along the well-maintained trails, surrounded by the crisp, fresh mountain air and the quiet beauty of the natural surroundings. The views of the city lights from the top were absolutely stunning, providing a unique perspective that made the visit truly special. However, we were a bit disappointed that the restaurant was closed for a **private event**, so we couldn’t enjoy a meal while taking in the amazing nighttime views. We were looking forward to the dining experience, as we had heard great things about it. The private event limited our ability to fully enjoy everything the mountain has to offer, which was a bit of a letdown. Despite that, the peaceful walk and the incredible views more than made up for it. **Grouse Mountain** is a fantastic place to visit in the evening if you're looking for a quiet, scenic retreat. We’ll definitely be back again, hoping to experience the restaurant and all that the mountain has to offer next time. For now, I’m giving it 4 stars due to the limited experience we had during the private event, but I know it’s worth a 5-star visit when everything is open!

Grouse Mountain is an essential visit for your itinerary if you're in the area. The skylift runs at around every 8 minutes or so, there is easy parking nearby that you can pay for via the app Pay By Phone which I recommend, and within a short time you'll be on top of the mountain. The lumberjack displays and owl displays are excellent and well worth taking in, and of course there are the two resident grizzly bears which are quite remarkable to see. There are great facilities with clean and well maintained washrooms and a good cafe on site. Plan to spend at least half a day on Grouse Mountain. It's a superb experience

A Must-Visit Mountain Experience I recently had the pleasure of visiting this mountain, and I must say, it’s absolutely worth the trip. The mountain offers an incredible range of activities, and the wildlife is truly a highlight. You can encounter bears, birds, and many other animals in their natural habitat, making it an exciting experience for nature lovers. Additionally, there’s so much to learn about the local ecosystem and wildlife through the various educational programs available. As if that weren’t enough, the night view from the mountain is stunning, providing a breathtaking panorama of Vancouver. Highly recommended for anyone looking to explore nature and enjoy some beautiful scenery!

The views from this mountain are absolutely breathtaking! Panoramic vistas stretch for miles, offering stunning sights of valleys, forests, and distant peaks. We visited with the kids, so we kept it relaxed with scenic walks and viewpoints. If we hadn’t been with them, I would have definitely tried paragliding—it looks like such an exhilarating way to take in the scenery! Whether you’re into adrenaline-pumping activities or simply soaking up nature’s beauty, this spot has something for everyone.

Was challenging getting up to the mountain through the trail but was fun to relax at the top. There is a small cafe for a coffee and a quick sandwich. After that you will see plenty of activities such as Owltalk, bears habitat, some deers around and you can use the chairlift to get to the mountain top. There’s not much up there just for you to have your picture taken as you go up and see the view. The windmill is not open but you can go close to it to check it out. It’s a great place to visit but will need plenty of time. It took me 2.5 hours to hike up and two and a half more to look around. Have fun up there and take your time to relax and enjoy the place, you don’t have to hike up, you can take the gondola 🚠 up and down.
