Revelstoke visitors have a new way to explore the region as the community’s mountain resort unveils its latest attraction.

The Revelstoke Highline, located 1,250 metres above the Arrow Lakes valley, opens at Revelstoke Mountain Resort Aug. 22, giving visitors access to a viewing deck and suspension bridge overlooking the Columbia River and Monashee Mountains.

Set at the top of RMR’s Revelation Gondola, the Highline is accessed through a 300-metre wooded trail and features a steel viewing deck anchored on the mountainside with cantilevers, as well as a 75-metre bridge stretched between two rocky outcrops. Total elevation from sea level clocks 1,690 metres.

“As we approach the end of a busy summer season, we are pleased to introduce a new attraction to our line-up,” RMR vice-president and general manager Peter Nielsen said in a release. “The Revelstoke Highline offers an entirely new way for our guests to experience the beauty of the Monashees and the Columbia River.”

Those from Revelstoke can tour the Highline for free on RMR’s locals’ day Saturday, Aug. 30, if they provide proof of address at the resort’s guest services. A barbecue, refreshments and other festivities at the top of the gondola will take place to mark the feature’s opening.

As well, any holders of RMR’s Sightseeing & Hiking Lift Pass or Adventure Pass can access the Highline gratis, and locals can continue to enjoy free access from Aug. 30 to Sept. 29.

“It’s a truly unique and elevated mountain experience that we’re proud to share with both visitors and our local community,” Nielsen added.
