Wonderful Ski Area next to Vancouver. Try to book your Tickets in advance and save money. Also, try to avoid Skiing at 10-12 and from 1-2 as it is quite crowded. They also offer great night skiing!

Best local mountain in terms of terrains and location. They have just upgraded their rental fleet in 2018 too. If you're planning to go, get the cypress mountain gift cards from Costco, 2 * $50 for $80, and use them to pay for your lift tickets online for the best deal.

Great skiing, best place with the most runs in the lower mainland. Gets really busy, but that's to be expected. Restaurant staff are very friendly and the food is great (miss the whiskey Jack burger though)
Hoping for lots of snow this year!

The snow slopes themselves are great but the incompetent staff ruin the experience.

Both the booking and renting system is broken and needs to be improved for the customers sake. Staff don't seem to know what they're doing and are incapable of helping out when an unexpected situation occurs. Despite getting in the line early and booking in advance, it took well over an hour for me to get to the slopes because of an error on their part.

Lockers cost $2 and should you need to access your bag during a break from the slopes, you'll have to pay another $2 to lock it up again.

Food is expensive and mine contained a piece of packaging. When notifying the waitress, I was not charged for the meal and was given a free drink although she did tell me "you're lucky it was only paper, I've seen worse". She went on to tell me how a customer had experienced finding an insect in their burger.

So yeah, I'd avoid this place where possible. It's a shame because the surrounding is magnificent but its hard to appreciate it after all the stress caused by the unacceptable service.

Best of the three local mountains (Seymour, Grouse, Cypress). Strongly recommended for a family day out if you don't want to make the hike to Whistler.

Lessons are reasonably priced and the instructors are good. We had Jill and Butters and they both took their time with the group making sure everybody was getting tips.

It's $10 for the closest parking, so arrive early to beat the lines. If you're late, you're stuck on the lower parking lots and will have to walk a bit with all your gear.

Haven't skied here since I was a kid... Come up here for the lookout and the scenic drive. Always worth the trip. There is a restaurant and coffee shop open here all year round as well.

Offers a variety of winter activities like downhill skiing, cross country skiing, and snow shoeing. Rentals are available at the chalet. During non winter months the mountain is open to the public for hiking and mountain biking.

Snow tubing scheduled at 10am. Sat in traffic attempting to park for over an hour. Called the Nordic section of the mountain asking if there was any plan to allow guests to be able to stay longer due to the inadequate job managing traffic and parking. The manager told me in a very snippy tone more or less we were out of luck. Once we arrived at the parking lot we were informed by the attendant the lot was full and we would have to turn around drive down the mountain to find a place to park alongside the road to park and walk back up. Absolute mess of a ski resort and after speaking to three different "managers" no refund was offered and no extended time was given so we left without ever hitting the slopes.

Great city mountain to access on a day off. Great options between the two mountains and always a green or at least a blue in every place for the beginners. Some directions could be better placed as there was a section in which you had to go further past some trees to see a blue run among the blacks.

One of the best ski resorts in BC and part of winter Olympics 2010. It s half an hour drive from downtown and is pretty well maintained. The number of chairs is limited compared to Whistler but the pass price is reasonable. If sunny, take the Lions express and then sky chair and see the magical view.

Accurate snow reports would be appreciated. I've been a passholder here for years and it is the best local Vancouver mountain, but liberties are taken with words like "pow day" and the reported base is a lot more like entire annual snowfall considering you can scrape up grass at mid mountain.

Horrible Customer Service!!!!

Horrible Customer Service!!!!

I purchased two full day tickets online in advance, due to my personal reasons, I couldn't make it to the mountain on that day so I emailed them to see if I can switch to another day. First reply said no, all products are final sale, no refund no exchange date. I asked them nicely again, second reply said no again as it's against company policy. I mean, what could you possibly lose to switch my lift tickets to another day??!! Seems like they just dont care their customers, well, you can keep my $200 dollars, but you lose me as a customer forever, I guess they dont care anyways.

It is best to go skiing from home at 8 o'clock in the morning and stop at the paid parking lot for $10 a day.
Close to the ski slopes, it is easy to get back to the car to pick up the ski equipment.

The price is more expensive, but the snow field is big enough. A lot of courses are suitable for all kinds of students... Parking lot It is not like going to the grouse, it needs to go to the cable car... Recommend everyone to come

Love it!

I ve been on numerous hikes on Cypress now and it s become one of my favourite destinations in the Vancouver area to get out and get some exercise.

Overall, it s very dog friendly and there are both popular trails and quiet, less travelled spots as well.

We went there when there wasn t that much snow so that s probably the main reason I want to give them one star but anyways we checked online and it wasn t clear if they are open or close I guess they just don t care however that s just the service the mountain self is beautiful
