It’s the Season for Fall Colors at Snowbowl – Witness the Golden Hues From the Gondola!
Fall is here, and that means it’s officially time to start chasing golden aspens on the mountain! Crisp mornings, cool temps, and the magic of the season are just beginning to take hold here in Flagstaff.
There’s no better way to soak it all in than with a Scenic Gondola Ride, climbing to 11,500 feet for unmatched panoramic views of the San Francisco Peaks draped in autumn colors.
Save big on Scenic Gondola tickets when you buy online and in advance! Plus, all adult Scenic Gondola tickets come with $10 in Bowl Bucks, so you can enjoy a fall treat at the lodge before or after your ride!
Snowbowl is open daily starting Friday, September 26 for Scenic Gondola Rides, activities for the whole family, mountain dining, and disc golf through October 19, 2025!
We’re extending fall for a bonus weekend! Scenic Gondola Rides will be exclusively available October 24 – 26 from 10 AM – 4 PM! Last chance to experience the mountain in fall before winter!
