Elk Grove Forest Playground

Located in a beautiful shady tree island at the top of the Elk Chair, kids will love to explore and play in this forest playground.  The playground was designed and built by Johnny Korthius and his team at J Ko Industries – they brought amazing ideas and energy to this project and we were super stoked to work with them.

The Elk Grove will be a vibrant addition to the other summer activities that guests can access via the Elk Chair. Families can embark on a day of adventure, starting their visit with a ride up the Elk Chairlift, and exploring the Elk Grove Forest Playground and Nature Bob’s Interpretive Centre. Enjoy a family-friendly hike, passing by an observation deck with spectacular views and educational interpretive signs. Then return to the Bear’s Den to enjoy refreshing beverages, snacks, and everyone’s favorite – ice cream!

Features of the new Elk Grove Forest Playground include:

  • Pirate Ship
  • Bridges
  • Slide
  • Chairlift Swings
  • Cargo Climbing Net
  • Sandbox
  • Paths winding through the forest, connecting all of the play features
  • Picnic Area

New features for Summer 2025:

  • Expanded sandbox area with bucket pulleys
  • Spider Web Space Net
  • Bridges - suspension & rope climber

Phase 1 of the Elk Grove Forest Playground was completed for summer 2024. Phase 2 was completed for summer 2025 (see updates above).

All Fernie Alpine Resort summer lift tickets and season passes include access to the Elk Grove Forest Playground. Children must be supervised by their responsible parent/adult.

The Elk Grove promises to be a unique, fun-filled experience for kids and families. Come and join us for an unforgettable adventure!
