• Stanley Park - Start the day with a brief (15-minute) guided tour of Stanley Park, narrated as you travel along Stanley Park Drive in a mini-coach or van. Stanley Park is one of Vancouver’s most iconic landmarks, featuring popular attractions like the Brockton Point Totem Poles and the 9 o’clock gun.

After exploring the north-west section of Stanley Park, head to North Vancouver via the Stanley Park Causeway on Highway 99. The guide will highlight key points and share insightful commentary on the natural and human history along the route.

• Lions Gate Bridge - Cross the Lions Gate Bridge, arguably Vancouver’s most iconic and storied piece of infrastructure, on the way to North Vancouver.
• The Grouse Grind - The active part of the day begins with Vancouver’s “stairmaster,” The Grouse Grind. This challenging 2.5 km (1.55 mile) trail winds through a forest of towering evergreens, culminating at the top of Grouse Mountain with an 800m elevation gain. Completing this iconic hike is a rite of passage for Vancouverites. At the summit, the views of Vancouver are breathtaking on a clear day, and Grouse Mountain offers attractions for everyone, including the park’s two rescued grizzly bears, Coola and Grinder. Lumberjack and Birds of Prey shows entertain visitors multiple times daily during the high season (attendance depends on how quickly you complete the hike).

Non-hiking option: For those preferring more time at the top, guides offer discounted tickets for the Grouse Mountain Gondola Skyride.

• Grouse Mountain - The adventure continues at the summit! Enjoy free time to explore the many complimentary attractions, including the resident grizzly bears, lumberjack show, birds of prey show, zipline, cafes, restaurants, theatre, and more.

• Grouse Mountain Skyride - A download Skyride ticket (hike up and take the gondola down) is included with the tour. The Skyride elevates you above towering Douglas firs, revealing breathtaking views of Vancouver, the sparkling Pacific Ocean, Gulf Islands, and snowy peaks as you ascend the mountainside. North America’s largest aerial tramway system offers a gateway to the majestic nature of The Peak of Vancouver, providing an experience in itself.

• Lynn Canyon Suspension Bridge - The Lynn Canyon Suspension Bridge stands about 50 meters (167 feet) above the crystal-clear pools of Lynn Creek, nestled within a 616-acre temperate rainforest.

On a hot summer day, take a short walk from the suspension bridge to enjoy the refreshing waters of Twin Falls.
