Unplug the kids and unlock outdoor adventure over Spring Break at the Sea to Sky Gondola in Squamish, BC by saying a simple phrase at the ticket window: “Secret Spring Break.” Monday to Friday, March 13 to March 31, up to three children 12 and under accompanied by at least one adult, can ride the Sea to Sky Gondola for free.

The Sea to Sky Gondola’s forested trails are the perfect backdrop for unstructured play time in nature and the summit’s viewing platform’s iconic views are the perfect place to break out the selfie stick for some candid family photos. Kids can snowshoe along winding alpine trails, snow tube, play a game of Winter Bingo and dare to cross the unforgettable 100 metre long Sky Pilot Suspension Bridge before warming up with a hot chocolate and a snack in the lodge.

“Spring Break should be just that, a break from the every day. It’s the perfect time for families to dedicate some time to just playing outside,” says Kirby Brown, Sea to Sky Gondola General Manager. “Our stimulating natural alpine environment is balanced by a cozy alpine lodge so families with kids of all ages can spend a couple of hours or the whole day exploring, recharging and sharing memorable outdoor adventures together.”
