LIGHT WALK

Experience magic in the trees on our enchanting Light Walk. The entrance is marked by a glowing light tunnel, just off the mountaintop Skating Pond. Lights along the path around Blue Grouse Lake allow you to snowshoe or walk in the winter night. Marvel at the beauty with snow crunching underfoot. The glow of light against a majestic mountain backdrop is not to be missed!

SKATING POND
Come glide at the only mountaintop outdoor skate pond in the Lower Mainland. Great for a fun family adventure or a romantic date – it’s time to lace up those skates for a spin in the fresh mountain air. Skate rentals are available onsite for $10 per adult and $6 per child.

  • Figure Skating shows on selected dates: Come see and support local emerging figure skaters (See live entertainment schedule for dates)
