15 minutes north of downtown Vancouver, you will reach Grouse Mountain. In fact, the name is even more lovely - Songji Mountain, yes, this mountain is named because there are many grouse in the coniferous forest on the mountain. But there are more wild animals on the Graus Mountain, but more than grouse. I saw it with squirrels, owls and black bears. I didnt see hummingbirds, pine scorpions, reindeer, pikas, The coyotes...
Upper Mountain Super Skyride is the largest cable car I have ever had before, and a car can hold about 70 or 80 people. When the weather is warm, even the top of the cable car can stand up to ten people - of course, the safety rope. Waiting for the summit, you can see the panoramic view of the impressive Vancouver city, the sparkling sea and the snow-capped peaks in the distance.
Spring, summer and autumn, the mountain trails with different strengths and mountain rope adventures are a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts. The best is the canopy adventure for children, looking at the age of four or five. The little guys, from hesitation to courage, finally floated happily on the ropes between the tree houses, and they were quite "burning".
Winter mountain avatars in the snowy fairyland, the Vancouver people who work off the car to snowboard to slide the night is their usual life. As for the 900-pound brown bear - the weight does not affect the sharpness of its eyes and the agility of the movement, as well as the cute "Hedwig", the locals are used to it, but we are excited about these tourists

Come ski, hike and just enjoy the beautiful Grouse Mountain :)
A good place to go Mountain climbing, not too hard even for the beginners. nice restaurant and coffee shop on the top of the hill. Cable-cart is a easy way for the kids and seniors.
A place where you can hike up a mountain. When you reach the top there's a gift shop and restaurant.
You can see this mountain from your homestay. Great gondola ride and for all you outdoor hardcores. The Grouse Grind. We dare you. One of Vancouver's main outdoor "rights of passage."
It was the first time I had my head in the clouds - literally! If you're tough enough try hiking up the mountain. Many make it, many don't. For the rest of us, the lift is just fine. At the top there are black bears, zip lining, ski lifts and other interesting things to do. Overall, Grouse Mountain is great for someone who loves the outdoors and a little adventure.
