Bridge Club Annual Membership

We want to reward your dedication to the mountain and encourage your lifelong relationship with its breathtaking views, native wildlife and stunning trails and paths. The Bridge Club annual pass is a way for you to enjoy greater access to the wonders of Grandfather Mountain, to save on your visits here and to other area attractions, and to help build a bridge to the future for Grandfather Mountain Stewardship Foundation so that generations to come can experience its nature and beauty. 

Bridge Club Benefits

You may also purchase your membership by going inside the Entrance building on your next visit. If, after visiting Grandfather at the regular price, you decide that you would like to have an annual membership — bring your receipt to the Gate before you depart the mountain and that day’s admission fee will be applied to the cost of your membership.

You can then enter your information for billing. The membership will go to the gift recipient and the receipt will go to the billing contact.

Sharing your Group Pass with a spouse or partner? If you’re buying a group pass to share with a spouse or partner and would like their name on the card with yours, be sure to “Add Adult” and enter the second name in the checkout proces. (NOTE: Although group passes may include two cardholder names, complimentary admission applies only to the member presenting the card plus five guests; not five guests each. Cardholder must be present. Cards are not transferrable to another party.)
