Mahon Park — Attraction in North Vancouver

I know, I know, most of my ratings are between 4 stars and 5, however most people think of 4 and 5 stars as positive, if I said 3 you may have thought it was dirty or had bad customer service but this isnt the case with Cypress mountain. Cypress mountain is an average ski resort exempt the few stand out qualities that take it a little beyond your average idea and I'd like to focus on those. The sky chair, while a little scary, takes you to the top of the mountain to find amazing views and good intermediate runs down, do not miss the sky chair. Whilst up there myself I found a blue run at the beginning of a green run of which the name escapes me, it was the first blue I ever tried and I found by doing it twice I was already prepared for all the other blue runs, therefore the skill progression of each run is very well made and favours the new. Finally the main lodge with the rentals, and shops, have great tasting food, imagine fast food but without the unhealthy feeling and you have the cypress cafeteria (the layout looks a lot like a local bc ferries whitespot and a food court mixed together). 4 stars, if your in the area and debating where to ski, it WILL NOT hurt to try...

Great facility. Used to run here back when it was a terrible dirt track. The upgrades are excellent, though they should have added more lanes to make it viable for competitions. The interior turf field is regularly used for soccer, so heads up if you are doing laps! There is a bit of equipment at the perimeter of the track which can make for some great additions to the workout.

Throw in the waterpark that is adjacent to the track and it really makes it great for the whole family.

Behind the stadium, a beach volleyball court has just been installed and the pickleball and basketball court are relatively new additions also. There is a great, well-sized, off-leash dog park as well. If you look, you can even see the stone that has been there since Mahon Park had an outdoor public pool, something North Van certainly needs...
