SCENIC SKYRIDE TO THE TOP OF ARIZONA

The Scenic Skyride & Peak Side Cafe are now closed for summer operatins.

Our Skyride shuttles you to an elevation of 11,500 feet for panoramic views atop this extinct volcano. From this elevation, you can see over 70 miles of world-class scenery — including the Grand Canyon and downtown Flagstaff. This 90 minute activity is perfect for the entire family.

The Skyride offers great opportunities for photography, viewing wildlife, hiking, or just enjoying the peaceful ride up and down Arizona’s highest mountains. Once you reach the top, a Forest Service interpretative specialist is available to assist you and answer any questions regarding the biology and geology of the region.

 

Summer Operations

The Scenic Skyride operates daily from 10 AM to 4 PM from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day, weather permitting. After Labor Day, the Skyride operates Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays through mid-October.

The Scenic Skyride is approximately a 25 minute ride in each direction. Please be prepared for cooler conditions at the top of the ride and the possibility of inclement weather.

Snowbowl Ranger Talks happen every Friday, Saturday, Sunday and holidays from 10 am to 4 pm at the top of the Skyride. Learn about the flora, fauna, history and geology of the San Francisco Peaks. Talks are sponsored by the National Park Service/US Forest Service Interpretive Partnership program.
