Only a short drive from downtown Vancouver, this attraction brings in visitors from all over the globe every year. Open all year long, you can enjoy the sky ride up to the mountain top, or sit and have a nice glass of wine with friends at the Observatory Restaurant which provides panoramic views of the whole city. This restaurant offers an amazing dining and an ambiance to die for.

If you’re looking for a less of a fine dining experience, then head to the Altitudes Bistro for West Coast dishes and cool patio views. There are events on in the summer such as the Birds in Motion Demonstrations, nature trails, the World Famous Lumberjack Show and the Refuge for Endangered Wildlife. In the winter, Grouse Mountain comes to life with 26 snowboard and ski slopes, as well as sleigh rides, skating rinks, snowshoe trails and so much more for family and friends.
