THIS IS A REVIEW FOR THE ALPINE SLIDE IN SUMMERTIME We came to Lutsen to check it out during the summer and we only did the Alpine Slide - had no food or drinks. I came with my 9 year old daughter and we both did the slide. It lasted a good bit and was worth every penny! Included a gondola ride. Highly recommend doing this! So fun!

Going up the gondola was amazing and the view was something else! I totally recommend it just for that! Bring your own food, though! They do have a great place to sit, indoor and outdoor, but the food is terrible and so overpriced it's laughable. The trails and outlook points make up for it though!

Good experience. Went there on a weekend afternoon. Did not have to wait in line for the tickets or the gondola ride. It takes about 8 mins to get to the top of the hill, and you can soak in nice views of Lake superior on one side and fall colors on the other. Its pet friendly, so feel free to take your pets along. The ticket costed about 33$ for a round trip.

Beautiful in the fall. Visited October 8th 2024 mid morning. Wasnt too busy. Longest wait was the ticket booth but that only took 10 minutes. We rode the gondola to the mountain and then walked the trail up to the other lifts and then took the trail along the side of the mountain. It isnt for the faint of heart. The views were breathtaking though...literally 🤣
