how does parking work? free? fee? can you leave and come back during the same day and reuse the same parking voucher (or do you need to pay again every time you exit/reenter)?

[@bilalbadar1135]

Hey, were you able to find out how the parking works?

[@sumrandumguy7177]

@@bilalbadar1135 when I went, three or so large lots around the three or so entrances to the village, parking was free, but the lots were designed as one-way only and funnelled you through one end to the other, so trying to get a spot close to the entrance may be a gamble and a waste of time if there are none, since you can’t turn around and instead have to exit the lot and renter it at the entrance and drive through it again, and it may be a bit of a walk, But it was free which was good, with no need to obtain a parking pass or anything like that

@@sumrandumguy7177 Awesome, thank you for replying!

Do you pay just to enter the village even if you don’t do any activities?

[@TravelingFlamingo]

You do not have to pay to walk around the village. Just for the activities :)

The "mountain" isn't really a mountain to begin with. It's a ridge that stretches for several kilometers. There is no mountain top. It's fun to explore the many runs by gradually moving from one end of the resort to the other. I've skied out West, and absent being in tip-top shape and an expert skier, when you are out West you rarely do an entire 3,000 foot vertical drop in one run. Your thighs burn out a lot sooner than that. The 700' at Blue Mountain is just enough to burn your thighs, and you are happy for the break of a seat on the chair lift to get to the top of the hill again. One evening after dinner, my son, my nephew and I did 24 trips down the lighted Smart Alec run (there were no lines at the lift that evening) which amounted to over 16,000 vertical feet of skiing, and that was after skiing all day before breaking for dinner. You don't get the views you would get on a 10,000 ft. mountain, but the view of Georgian Bay from the top of the hill is pretty spectacular. It's the best place to ski within reasonable driving distance from my home, and a lot cheaper than flying out West. The one criticism I would have is that the weather is unusually unsettled due to the adjacent Georgian Bay and Lake Huron looming a bit to the West. The microclimate tends to be extra-windy and a bit warmer due to the summertime heating of the lake water. The lakes mean lake-effect snow when a cold front blows through, which is a plus for skiers, but those same lakes mean you can catch warmer than freezing temps and sloppy snow conditions. The resort does have prodigious snow-making capacity, though, so you'll always have places to ski even if the early season temps are a bit high due to the proximity of the lakes.

Hopefully we can all travel to a mountain soon, thanks for watching Kenneth 🦩

[@kennethkalls4031]

@@TravelingFlamingo Lake Tahoe is spectacular and they measure the snow in feet. That snow tends to bit a bit moisture laden at times, rather than the powder snow you might see in the Rockies. I"ve never skied the Rockies, and I'm almost certainly too old now at 70 to fork over the money to try and enjoy those slopes. Some aspects of the good life need to be enjoyed while you are young.

[@TravelingFlamingo]

That sounds spectacular, we'll definitely add it to our bucket list. 🦩

[@CookingwithDaCariagas]

is there an entrance fee ?

[@TravelingFlamingo]

Anyone can come and walk around the grounds and shops. You just need to pay for the attractions like the high ropes course.

[@ahrartahmidrubab5314]

Its a much smaller village than the village of St Catharines located in Niagara Falls

[@TravelingFlamingo]

You can definitely see the entire village in one day.

Blue mountain village is a dump now everyone from Toronto and peel, the parking is absolutely crazy . Blue mountain village has to charge for parking at least $20.00 per day and parking controlled went on July 3 2022
