Day At Blue Mountain
The pleasure’s all yours!
It’s your summer getaway and you want it all: Rest, relaxation and a
range of recreation to please everyone. Not to mention beautiful
scenery, fabulous shopping, fine dining and fun food. Is it too much to
ask? Not at Blue Mountain Resort.
Now more than ever Blue Mountain is the vacation destination for summer
fun. What’s your pleasure? A challenging round on an award-winning golf
course? Perhaps tennis? You won’t want to miss the gondola ride up the
escarpment, but how to get down? Hike? Mountain bike? Or a relaxing
return ride? You decide. Put the kids in day camp or take them to the
beach? Maybe some of each! A massage before dinner, or shopping? Steak
tonight, or spicy noodles? It’s up to you. You’ll be glad you booked a
week.
Save some time to just hang out in The Village, the welcoming focal
point where friends and family meet. Catch some entertainment, sip a
Starbucks and find that special gift or perfect pair of shades. Then
dance the night away or retire to your condo with a good book. You
deserve it.
It’s your getaway. Just the way you pictured it.

Mountain Biking
Spring is just around the corner and with that comes another much
anticipated season of mountain biking!
This year, Blue Mountain is working towards enhancing its mountain
bike terrain with the focus on enhancing its features with the exception
of drops and jump tracks. The Progression Park will remain dismantled
for the 2007-08 summer season, where as features such as rock gardens,
ladders and entire feature runs will be built upon and enhanced. Trail
information and consistent updates can be found here before and
throughout the mountain bike season.
Effective for the 2008 season, riders aged 17 and under must either
be accompanied by a Blue Mountain Guide, parent or have completed the
rider assessment by a Guide to ride on their own. Appropriate downhill
mountain biking skills and suitable equipment are required. This program
provides a more structured introduction to the sport. Feedback from the
end of 2006-07’s mountain bike season indicates success with this
progression program.
Thank you to those who have submitted your input and helped us along
in the process of transitioning our downhill mountain bike facility.
Please don’t hesitate to get in touch in the future with any questions
or comments at
mountainbiking@bluemountain.ca.
