2. Revelstoke Pipe Mountain Coaster
The next mountain coaster on our list is the Pipe Mountain Coaster and Revelstoke, BC.
The Revelstoke Pipe Mountain Coaster is a 1.4 km single-track mountain coaster that starts at Revelation Lodge and finishes in the Village Plaza.
In 2023, Revelstoke Mountain Resort has added a 2nd mountain coaster track to its line-up of summer activities!
The 2nd mountain coaster is just over 2km long and gives visitors a completely new experience.
Unlike your typical dual-rail mountain coasters, these mountain coaster features a monorail which is built close to the ground and simulates the thrill of downhill mountain biking.
The total downhill ride time is about 3 minutes long, depending on your speed.
In order to access both Pipe Mountain Coasters, you’ll need to take a ride on the Revelation Gondola up to the mid-station.
While the Pipe Mountain Coasters are one of the most popular activities in summer (they don’t operate in winter), there are many other activities to do a Revelstoke when you’re there.
These include taking a scenic gondola ride to the top of the mountain on the Revelation Gondola, mountain biking, hiking, walking and trail running just to name a few.
