This Ontario chairlift ride has sky-high autumn views on a mountain top

You don’t have to head to Whistler for breathtaking mountaintop views! Right here in Ontario, you can experience the incredible fall colours chairlift ride at Calabogie Peaks Resort.

Returning throughout October, this popular journey will treat you to sky-high views of colourful tree canopies as far as the eye can see.

Ride to the top of Dickson Mountain and enjoy the autumn views along the way.

Then, you can either hike your way back down or take it easy and take the chairlift to the bottom of the mountain.

But, before you do that, you will definitely want to pause and soak up the vistas from the peak.

The Calabogie chairlift ride will run for the first three weekends in October from 10 AM to 3 PM, and operations are weather-dependent.

This spot is quite a trek from Toronto, so if you’re looking for a similar experience closer to home, you can hit up the autumn chairlift ride at Kelso Conservation Area this season.

There’s also the incredible chairlift excursion at Sir Sam’s Ski and Ride, which offers views of autumn leaves and shimmering blue lakes.

Not only that, but Blue Mountain Village has an open-air gondola ride that gives you a bird’s eye view of the escarpment dotted with orange, gold, and scarlet leaves.

So, what’re you waiting for? It’s time to enjoy the slopes while the air is still

warm and the leaves show off their brilliant autumn hues.

After that, we’ll be counting down the days until we return to the chairlift with our skis and snowboards in tow!
