12 Days of Giveaways: Take in the sights and more at the Sea to Sky Gondola
B.C.’s newest winter playground, the Sea to Sky Gondola in Squamish, opens daily this month for the winter season. A quick shuttle (daily from Vancouver) or drive north along the scenic Sea to Sky Highway will see you arrive at the base of the gondola for the 10-minute ride to the top of Mount Habrich, over 885 metres above sea level, where trails and decks await.
On December 4, The Spirit of Christmas Series launches with holiday events for all ages, and for all weather – rain, shine, or snow. Events and activities planned include:
- Visit from Santa on December 5 and 6 for pancakes and photos
- Weekly story time sessions in the Summit Lodge, Monday and Thursday mornings from December 7 to 24
- 12 Days of Christmas Family Tour running daily
For adults wanting to spend a little more time with nature, you can walk or snowshoe the decorated Spirit Trail, explore sightseeing trails, and slide at the tube park (weather permitting). Or if you want to stay in and admire the views, take advantage of Fondue dinners (December 11, 12, 27) or the monthly Taste of Europe Wine Pairing Series (December 18) featuring Italian food and wine.
