North Shore Mountain Discovery

Introduction

This tour is all about adventure, as you take in the natural wonders surrounding Vancouver.

Begin with a traverse through the green urban oasis of Stanley Park, and across the historic Lion’s Gate Bridge to Vancouver’s North Shore. At the Capilano River Hatchery, a project dedicated to several species of BC salmon and trout, you will learn about the life cycle of salmon, with the opportunity to view hatching and juvenile fish before they are released into a nearby river.

Spectacular Grouse Mountain is next, offering up ever changing views as the Skyride ascends to the peak. Explore the wildlife refuge, where you can meet the resident Grizzly bears, Grinder and Coola. Be amazed and enchanted by the forests and mountains surrounding Vancouver on this memorable tour. Check out the historical and nature-based films playing at the Theatre in the Sky. You also have the option to take the Peak Chair to the very top of the mountain and enter the Eye of the Wind (additional cost), a large wind turbine with an observation platform.

Finish the day at Capilano Suspension Bridge Park and stand above an old growth cedar forest and the Capilano River. Experience the awe of natural surroundings, view First Nations Artwork, and feel the rush of adrenaline at the Cliffwalk attraction. The Treetops Adventure walk showcases the beauty and diversity of the Capilano coastal rainforest.
