Looking For How to get to Blue Mountain?

Hi, me and my friends want to go to Blue Mountain next weekend, none of us can drive, so driving is not an option. Does anyone know how to get to Blue Mountain either with public transport or Uber? and is taking Uber reliable? is there a high chance of cancellation and waiting time?

Linx can get you to Collingwood from Barrie. You will need to look up their schedule to see if it could work.

OP doesn't know how to even Google basic information, why do you think they will be able to look up a schedule lol.

That is going to be a very expensive uber, Barrie to Blue Mountain and back. Renting a vehicle for a day would be cheaper if that is an option.

None of us can drive though, so probably not an option 🥲

Hi. None of them can drive and I'm not psychic, nor do I know them. Hope this helps your future answering endeavors.

Dude, I took that to mean they had no access to a car, not that they weren’t licensed. I will be sure to seek out your approval before I attempt to assist our fellow humans in the future.

You don't know the people you're travelling with? That's weird.

Take the Simcoe County LINX Transit bus "Barrie to Wasaga Beach" from Allandale Go to 25 45th Street Wasaga Beach. Then take the Simcoe County LINX Trasit bus "Wasaga Beach to Collingwood" bus to the COLLTRANS Transit Terminal, 97 Hurontario St, Collingwood. Then take the "Blue Mountain Link" bus to Blue Mountain.

Check the times for the Simcoe County Transit Linx bus 5:30 am to 6:30 am, or you may spend the night at the Cranberry Resort

You can uber pretty reliably from anywhere in Barrie to Blue Mountain. Looks like about $70-$80 for an UberX and $140 for UberXL (right now).
