About Grouse Mountain

Grouse Mountain rises above North Vancouver and is reached by a scenic Skyride gondola from the base. At the summit you’ll find lookout platforms with sweeping city and ocean panoramas, short nature trails, dining options and seasonal entertainment including lumberjack shows and wildlife exhibits.

Outdoor enthusiasts can tackle the famous Grouse Grind trail (a steep, strenuous hike up the mountain) or opt for the easier gondola ascent. In winter the mountain offers skiing, snowshoeing and festive activities; summer brings ziplining, guided hikes and sunset viewing.
