About this adventure
Board the world's largest rotating tram car for an unforgettable 10-minute ascent through the dramatic cliffs of Chino Canyon, climbing from desert floor to 8,516 ft elevation at Mountain Station in Mt. San Jacinto State Park. In winter, the upper wilderness transforms into a quiet sub-alpine snowscape where temperatures drop 30–40 degrees. Families can rent snowshoes at the Winter Adventure Center, build snowmen in Long Valley, hike pine-forested trails, and dine at the Pines Cafe.
