Capilano Suspension Bridge Park, Vancouver
Appreciate nature from three breathtaking perspectives - Capilano Suspension Bridge, Treetops Adventure and the exciting Cliffwalk.
The 450 ft (137m) long, 230 ft (70m) high Capilano Suspension Bridge has thrilled visitors since 1889. While the wobbly bridge and stunning location is a Vancouver landmark, Capilano Suspension Bridge Park offers an all-encompassing BC experience. History, culture and nature are presented in unique and thrilling ways with knowledgeable staff and interpretive signage providing as much, or as little, information as guests wish.
Cliffwalk follows a granite precipice along Capilano River on a labyrinth-like series of narrow cantilevered bridges, stairs and platforms through rainforest vegetation. With 16 anchor points in the cliff supporting the structure and see-through platforms, Cliffwalk is not for the faint of heart! Interactive exhibits demonstrate the need for water conservation.
Treetops Adventure takes guests 110 feet (33m) into the mid-story of a coastal rainforest on seven suspension bridges attached to old-growth Douglas-fir trees. It is accessible to guests age 2 to 92.
Engagement stations throughout the park offer Historical, Indigenous and Nature focused talks and are highly recommended. Seasonal musical entertainment rounds out your experience. Capilano Suspension Bridge Park has the world's largest private collection of totem poles, including local Coast Salish, Haida, Tsimsian and Tlingit poles that have been carved on-site over the years in Kia'palano. The 110 year-old Trading Post Gift Store, which retains its early 1900s mercantile flavour, sells Canadian gifts and take home memories. Seasonal events like Raptors Ridge birds of prey June to October and Canyon Lights in December and January enhance the many experiences at this year-round destination.
Admission includes all three experiences and round-trip transportation from downtown on the Capilano Free Shuttle.
Canyon Lights (seasonal event)
