Admission

Due to winter capital improvements, the Outcroppings and Skyline trails will be closed until spring 2012. There is currently no access to the Chimney and points of interest above, including the Opera Box, Devil’s Head and Exclamation Point. The elevator and Sky Lounge will also remain closed until spring 2012. Read more about improvements, winter hours and reduced admission here.

• Rates are discounted while capital improvements are underway. Beginning Dec. 5, 2011 and continuing through the completion of winter capital improvements, group adult admissions are $7 and youth (ages 6-15) are $3. Children 5 & under are always admitted free.
• Pre-ticketed admission is available. These tickets will only be valid for your event date.
• For each ticket purchased, guests may upgrade to an adult or youth Annual Pass. Pay just $11 (adults) or $4 (youth ages 6-15) and get an Annual Pass for 12 months' worth of fun.
• If the planned function is over 100 people, guaranteed admission of 80% is required (for example, a contracted picnic of 600 people would require guaranteed admission for 480.)
