On Mother's Day weekend the Sea to Sky Gondola will be celebrating 10 years! In honour of the occaision they have plenty of fun and activities planned, including live music, interpretive and kid-friendly tours, yoga with a view and a scavenger hunt. A fabulous way to spend the day (on both Saturday and Sunday).
Take to the Skies
Some years you want to go all out and treat Mom to the experience of a lifetime to show them just how much they mean to you. Why not take her on a flightseeing tour of the Sea to Sky, or even learn a new skill like flying a plane over the coast mountains with Sea to Sky Air.
Visit a Waterfall
May is the perfect season to visit one of Squamish's splashy waterfalls. New Moms will enjoy the stroller-friendly access at Shannon Falls Provincial Park while those willing to put some muscle into it will love the viewpoints at Crooked Falls.
Check out the Trains
Is you mom a fan of trains? Or is she just a BIG fan of a certain someone who loves trains? Either way, the Railway Museum of BC is open for this special day, and admission for mom's is FREE!
Walk the Trails
Spend some quality time together on one of Squamish's stunning trails. Choose from a rainforest walk along the Four Lakes Trail (6.5km), a walk with views like the Smoke Bluffs, a seaside ocean stroll in Porteau Cove Provincial Park or downtown on the Mamquam boardwalk.
Walk Around Town
Take Mom on a leisurely stroll around Downtown Squamish, view the Stawamus Chief from the Mamquam Boardwalk, cross the colourful crosswalk on Cleveland Avenue and shop along the way. If your mother enjoys books perhaps consider stopping into Gather Bookshop or Book Mountain to let her select a new read. If you're celebrating on Saturday you can pop by the Squamish Farmers' Market, and be sure to stop by Sunflower Bakery & Cafe for one of their special Mother's Day donuts or Alice & Brohm for a lovely fresh fruit ice cream.
