- Join us as we explore the beautiful and scenic Sea to Sky Highway attractions on our way to Whistler, British Columbia. In this video we visit Shannon Falls (the third highest waterfall in BC) and ride up the Sea to Sky Gondola to hike the trails and walk over the Sky Pilot Suspension Bridge.
Did you know? The Sea to Sky Gondola was shut down for 10 months due to vandalism from September 2020 to July 2021. Someone cut the cables, causing the cabins to come crashing down and intensive repairs had to be made.
And, don’t miss my tips for visiting the Sea to Sky Gondola and trails at the end!

Thanks for watching! Are you afraid of heights or a brave soul who loves being up high? I *sort of* conquer my fear of heights in this video as we explore this beautiful area.
Hello Sarah. I wouldn't be totally confident as regards heights, but I would be more than confident on the Sea to Sky Gondola. You captured it really well.👍😊🇨🇮
Wow really so beautiful place and beautiful sharing my friend stay blessed
Thanks so much, we loved it there.
The falls and the hiking trails are so pretty! -S
I agree - great spots.
❤️Your video make me insane.❤️
What a plenitude of magnificence.
Such a charming capture✔️✔️✔️✔️
Thank you so much! :)
His vest matches the gondola! Thanks for the video. Planning to visit but on the fence about the fear factor.
Gotta love those free stone streams! BC sounds like an adventure paradise! Definitely adding to my list. That gondola is so cool. Such a beautiful view from the top!
Shannon Falls is truly stunning and we always love taking Gondolas! You guys got so high for sure! 10-12 minutes so ENOUGH TIME! Love that you guys had the whole ride to yourselves and it is truly stunning like you said. Especially the suspension bridge! View from the top is stunning! Love the rules!
It was so nice having the gondola to ourselves. Such an amazing morning at the falls and the Sea to Sky trails.
Beautiful and exciting experiences! Amazing landscapes and beautiful nature to admire! ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks so much - we really enjoyed it there
Another beautiful waterfall! Love how you make last minute stops as you travel. You find such amazing attractions that way.
Those gondola views were amazing, but so pricey! I agree though the views from the trail makes it worth it!
Looks absolutely beautiful! Love the sky gondola! The forest looks so green and inviting. Those falls
Looked breathtaking as well! What a special place to explore!
It was such an incredible area - and this was just our morning!
wow amazing friend view from gondola or cablle car.the view very beautiful
great from.hongkong watching
Shannon falls are so high, love when you time things beautifully 😁👍🏻👍🏻
Lots of tables in the picnic area.
Love a gondola.
The views from the bridge are spectacular and the clouds rolling in look so beautiful.
So many tips and inspiration thanks guys
Can feel your happiness at getting to the waterfall without anyone else there! It’s always so exciting when you get a spot like that to yourselves and get all the shots without any people.
Well done for doing that gondola, if you’re scared of heights that’s amazing, 12 minutes is quite a long gondola trip. Although that bridge actually looks scarier than the gondola 😅
You make everything look so fun, video credit for those amazing shots , many congrats and thanks for sharing guys
Sky Gondola looks beautiful and so much too offer, I was I amazed with free guided tour and the rock climbing its really interesting to visit!
Yeah it was such a worthwhile experience! Definitely recommend.
love the sky gondola!! ✨
Same!
Great that there were hardly any people around at the falls and on the trails!
The views from the gondola are sooo beautiful, wow! It sounds quite expensive, but totally worth it! The misty trails look so magical 😌
I like that you started and ended the video in the gondola with the beautiful views behind you 😊
It was beautiful and even though it was on the pricey side it was worth it. You could easily spend hours doing the hiking and just enjoying the views 👌
Super cool places and video! Keep up the good work. Hugs Fred's Channel ☀
Thanks so much!
Awesome video as per usual!
Thank you!! :)
very cool video Love the cable cart ride to the top what awesome views
The views were incredible there 👏
we're planning our trip so thanks for this great info!!
Glad it can be helpful!
That is awesome you had 10 minutes at the falls before anyone came! That is a great tip to get there early for that! I definitely understand your pain of the gondola ride. I have taken them a few times and I usually stand or sit pretty still lol. But I would be more nervous of the suspension bridge.
LOL at 3:09! 😂 Are there opportunities to get closer to the falls on the hikes? It seemed like y'all were set back at a distance from them... That is not Go Travel On The Cheap -friendly, the gondola prices! 😎 So glad it was worth it though. "Jump and tuck and roll", hahaha! Always fun to be in a cloud! Those views are amazing... Too bad they did not have any beer for y'all to sample at the top! 😁
Well done you for proceeding despite your fears. Indeed, so worth the effort. The reward was awesome. Love waterfalls. They somehow seem so magical- forever in motion. Lovely video. Thanks for sharing your fun day. 🤩🇳🇱🙋🇳🇿
The scenery in BC was all so magical. So much beautiful nature and pretty views. It was definitely worth facing my fear of heights!
Beautiful place and footages , running commentary is very informative and presented well.
Thanks so much! I loved the area.
Wow, that fall is impressive! Great that it's so close to the parking place. OMG, gondola should be an unforgettable experience! Views are just amazing! The bridge looks scary, it's so long! Thanks for the useful tips. It's very helpful in planning that experience :)
It was a beautiful area. I was really afraid of the gondola at first, but by the end I was feeling much better about it!
The views from the gondola and top of mountain must be amazing! Good tips at the end. I couldn’t figure out why I have never seen it and then realized every time I have gone to Whistler was from the other end through Pemberton because we come down from the north.
The views are incredible there! We almost didn't go to Whistler and we are so glad we cancelled our city activities in Vancouver to take the sea to sky highway.
I live in Squamish and have a seasons pass for the Gondola. Go for coffee uo there several times a week
That's a great idea, it's a beautiful place for coffee to enjoy the amazing views up there.
Loved it. Hope to go there in September.👍😊🇨🇮
It's an awesome place to visit
Shannon falls is certainly spectacular. I love how you ha the falls entirely to yourself. How early did you visit them? Such beautiful, clear water. The views from the gondola are lovely! I can't believe how blue that water is! The suspension bridge is really cool.
Been to Shannon Falls about 3 years ago. It was beautiful. We haven't done the Sea to Sky yet. Will have to do that on our next trip there.
It was so beautiful! I love the area, definitely want to go back.
Brave girl! No bridges for me 🤣🤣
I think I'm finally getting over my fear of heights... but only kind of haha
Born and raised in Squamish. That's my backyard
Looks like fun! What was the food like at the top? Anything tasty? Or just lame sandwiches?
What a beautiful walk! So cool that you got to enjoy it without other people. Although I must say, I am relieved to hear that you edit people out of your photos. My husband thinks I'm crazy for doing it :P the sky gondola looked so cool! I love seeing beautiful places like this from a birds-eye view. Somehow, I find gondolas less scary than suspension bridges, although it was worth the view! Thank you for sharing!
Haha yes I totally edit people out of photos if they are ruining my shot! But I felt so lucky to have these spots all to ourselves. I'm glad I went despite my fear of heights.
Did I hear rock climbing at Shannon Fall?! We would love to climb there some day. Sounds like your timing at the falls was perfect 😊
The views from the gondola and suspension bridge 😍 so glad you were feeling more comfortable with the heights to really enjoy the views!
Hi, thank you for the video 👍🏽 How many time did you walk from the parking to the first platform to see the waterfall? Thank you
It was only about a 10 minute walk to the falls.
Hi! Watching after a year! When you say "early", may I ask what time was it? Looking to do the same on a holiday. lol
When I say early I mean we got to the gondola before it opened and had to go to Shannon Falls to kill time. So before 9am.
If you have to choose between sea to sky gondola and peak to peak gondola, which one would you choose and why?
I only did the Sea to Sky, and we chose it because we wanted to do the trails and see some other sights in the area. Not sure about the peak to peak...
How much was the gondola ride?
I can't remember exactly... but I want to say around $60 per adult.
That gondola has been vandalized twice. Risky.
Yeah we found that out after our ride!
How so? Graffiti or tampering with safety measures
Tampering with the cable
I gotta say... the view is far more enjoyable climbing to the top. I know it's a hot-button topic, but I wish they never put the gondola up.
I heard after our visit that the gondola was vandalized... so seems you aren't the only one who wishes it wasn't put up!
Love being able to get to a waterfall or a beautiful attraction before everyone else does, well done! Steve is afraid of heights as well, He'd was nervous at first on a couple sky gondolas we've rode recently as well, but was glad I forced him on! 😂Beautiful views once you got up though!
