City Market is the closest grocery store where you’ll find anything from food to cosmetics to cleaning products. I highly recommend going here to do a big grocery shop.
The Mountain Market in GL is great if you need a few items as they are pretty expensive and limited on items.

This market is perfect for grabbing a few items you missed at City Market. They’re pricey and limited on what items they carry.
But they do offer some produce, meats, desserts, and various cooking items (canned goods, spices, etc).

Monarch lake offers fishing and is a great place to paddle board or kayak. Plus it’s dog friendly!

This mile long hike is perfect if you’re on a time crunch or have young kiddos. It’s short, pretty, and easy. Its incredibly easy to get to and is very close to the Golf Cabin!
It’s in the RMNP premise and no reservations are needed. Unfortunately, no furry friends allowed.

Not into skiing or snowboarding?The Fraser Tubing Hill is always a no pressure fun time.
Plus, there’s a pulley system that will hike you and your tube up the hill.
Please don’t get it mixed up with The Adventure Park - which is next to The Fraser Tubing Hill. I encourage this facility as they are long time locals! The other tubing hill is corporate and they’re trying to monopolize WP and Fraser.

Respect the Wildlife
Do not approach any wildlife as they can be dangerous when stressed out. Take a picture from a distance and please move on immediately. Please pick up any litter and do not throw your cigarette butts out the window. The worm eats the dirt and the bird eats the worm. Small choice makes a big impact.
