The ride up was pretty fun! Amazing views of the mountains from up there. Pretty sure you're up higher than the space needle. Some okay BBQ up there at the top, a shop that sells blue bell ice cream and cake by the slice, and a few gift shops as well. Lots of folks were doing the zip line while I was there, I chose to skip that. The Ski lift is a lot of fun, the enclosed cabin lifts up to the top can be a bit warm inside if you're there in the summer. Otherwise the open ones will be your best bet.
Anakeesta in itself is beautiful. Lots to do. Beautiful scenery. Did not have a good experience with some of the zipline staff. The instructions were rushed through, they weren't patient and one of the instructors actually pushed me off the bungee jump ledge b4 I got ready. I actually hit my foot on the ledge. They really need to understand that this is something new to most people who have never done this type of thing before. I'm glad that I had the opportunity to do it.
We enjoyed the draft beers and the smoked food too!
This place is amazing! A scenic ride takes you to the top of a mountain with a quaint little village among the trees, where you can get ice cream, see beautiful mountain views, walk on their treetop rope bridge course, or walk through their memorial garden for the fires last year. Well worth the cost of the ticket to come check this out, great for all ages! Also there is zipline course to the bottom you can sign up for if you're feeling adventurous! Come check this out, it's really fun!!
Unique experience, worth the $20 addmision price. Also, if you buy your ticket past 3pm it is good for the next day too. You can go up and down on the gondola as many times as you want. There is an enclosed one if the ski lift style is too open for you. The view from the top is one of a kind. It's a great experience for the whole family of all ages.
Nice long chairlift lift ride to the top. The views are beautiful. The so-called restaurant is actually a barbecue truck. There's really not much to do once you get to the top. Two very small gift shops and a restroom and some walking trails. There is still construction going on as of December 2017. I believe they open prematurely. Was about $50 bucks for me and the wife.$20 per person and $10 to park. No parking validation available.
