Fall Family Fun

Nothing Cooler Than Blue in Fall!


Fall doesn’t mean stay inside. Just have to add maybe one more layer. Then enjoy all the excitement you and your family are looking for in one scenic location just a short drive from the GTA.

Firstly, location is often key when planning a getaway with kids. Village Suites or the Westin Trillium House are located close to the shops and restaurants in Blue Mountain Village and each have seasonal swimming pools. If extra space is important, a Resort Home is a great vacation option when you want a little extra space and comfort! Blue Mountain offers a total of 12 different hotel and Resort Home options so you’re sure to find something that suits your family.

Once you've secured your stay, be extra prepared and pre-book your Play-All-Day Pass to enjoy non-stop access to the Blue Mountain Adventure Park. Don’t miss the Ridge Runner, Climbing Wall or the Wind Rider Triple Zips. The family that screams together stays together!

Discover Scenic Views


Here’s where you get up close with the colours, and where nature brings you a little closer to yourself. Set your own pace across 24 trails covering 30 km of incredible Escarpment scenery. You have your Play-All-Day pass, giving you unlimited access to the Open Air Gondola which takes you 720 vertical feet to the top, making it easy to access your route from the top or the bottom.

Pick up the pace of your exploration and experience the thrill of achievement with the on-mountain riding experience at Blue. Take on the cross-country trails at the top of Blue Mountain or enjoy a spin on the Georgian Trail and explore the region. You can bring your own wheels, or head to Activity Central to rent bikes for the day!

If you prefer a relaxing look at nature, discover the incredible wildlife that reside in our Village ecosystem! Traveling along the wetland shelf of the Mill Pond, the boardwalk provides access to notable amphibian habitat, where visitors can observe tadpoles, frogs, birds, and other wildlife. Interpretive displays are provided at various points, outlining the amphibian lifecycle and showcasing the pond’s flora, fauna and insects. 

 

Family Fun on the Mountain


Spend your day enjoying a selection of Blue Mountain’s 13 outdoor attractions. For the thrill-seeking family, the Ridge Runner Mountain Coaster is a must! Control your own speed as you glide through the terrain along one kilometer of track at speeds up to 42 km/hr.

For something a bit tamer, relive your childhood dreams, or make your kid’s dreams come true, by playing on the ultimate tree fort. Canopy Climb Net Adventure is Blue Mountain’s newest attraction, offering suspended rope nets, slides, treehouses and watch tower.

Action-Packed Village Experiences


No need to take on the Mountain for an action-packed adventure! Challenge your family to the ultimate brain versus brawn battle royale at Blue Mountain Village! Experience the satisfaction of sinking your axe into the bullseye target at AXED Throwing before or after tapping into your methodical mind as you become immersed in a Virtual Reality at VR Vault Arcade - Conveniently located across from one another, you can jump back and forth between the fun.

 
For kids who love to splash, swing and slide in the water, Plunge! is just the spot. The heated pools keep Plunge! in play even on cooler autumn days. For the more creative kids, choose your colours and a piece to paint at the Crockadoodle studio, when you’re done they’ll pop it in the kiln overnight for you to pick up the next day to take your handmade souvenir home!

AGORA is an unusual and magical space inspired by storytellers and cycles of life in nature. As participants walk this circular path, they will encounter a series of interactive lighting installations based on the five elements of air, space, earth, water and fire. The adventure begins with a rare moonlit gondola ride up the mountain, watching the lights of The Blue Mountains reflecting off the Georgian Bay. From there, begin the short 10min walk across the escarpment and through the spectacular and interactive light installations of Agora.
