Message From the General Manager
Our 86th festive season was filled with joy from start to finish. From the enchanting Carols by Candlelight and a classic Christmas dinner with musician Chris Jensen to a vibrant New Year’s Eve celebration, it was wonderful to welcome back familiar faces and meet new guests joining the Cathedral Peak family.
We extend heartfelt thanks to our guests and dedicated staff for making this season so special. A sincere thank-you also goes to everyone who contributed to our Pack for a Purpose initiative. Your generous donations will soon be shared with our local community, bringing comfort and happiness to those in need.
We are also excited to share that the road leading to Cathedral Peak is being completely rebuilt! This long-awaited improvement will make journeys to the mountains smoother and even more enjoyable in the years to come. We’re thrilled to see this project take shape and look forward to the benefits it will bring to our guests.
As we step into 2026, we look forward to sharing more exciting events, updates, and special offers. Keep an eye on your inbox, our WhatsApp group, and our social media pages for the latest news.
On behalf of the van der Riet family and the entire Cathedral Peak Hotel team, we wish you a wonderful New Year ahead; one filled with adventure, joy, and cherished moments together.
