Chairlift Rides

Enjoy a picturesque chairlift ride up Mt. Gilboa, one of Hennepin County's highest points. On the hilltop, meet a live bird of prey from Richardson Nature Center, view autumn?s colorful skyline through a spotting scope, listen to live acoustic music from Pig?s Eye Landing from 6:30-8:30 PM, and purchase tasty beverages and food grilled on-site. If you like, bring a picnic blanket. After dark, relax by a campfire, view stars through a telescope, and follow a lantern-lit trail down the hill. Adults must accompany children. Pets are not permitted. Note: everyone who rides the lift must sign a waiver (available at the event). Youth 17 and under must have a waiver signed by a parent/guardian.
