Next summer we have more to look forward to than just hitting the beach because Cypress Mountain Resort announced on Tuesday, September 22 that it would be bringing a wild ride to the mountainside.

You'll get a chance to zip down 1.7 kilometres of track at speeds of up to 40 kilometres an hour.

According to Cypress, the new attraction will open in the summer of 2021.

Construction is already underway on the "gravity thrill ride" and it will be unique in Vancouver.

The closest mountain coaster like this to the city is in Revelstoke, but the Cypress one will be just a bit bigger.
