Stanley Park Totem Poles

The collection of First Nation Totem Poles in Stanley Park, are one of the most visited attractions in British Columbia. Located in a meadow at Brockton Point, the Totem Poles represent several indigenous nations. These towering monuments are brought to life through First Nations artistry and are one of the most recognizable cultural symbols of Western Canada. Since the 1920s, the Vancouver Parks Board has been collecting intricately carved totem poles from remote locations in the province.

Capilano Suspension Bridge Park

Enjoy Capilano Suspension Bridge Park, where you’ll get to cross the iconic bridge and marvel at the amazing views of the Capilano River below and the surrounding forest and canyon.

Attractions in the park include the thrilling Cliffwalk, a cantilevered walkway that clings to the granite cliffside, featuring glass panels and narrow pathways for an exhilarating experience above the canyon. The park also features a Treetops Adventure, a series of seven suspension bridges connected to towering Douglas-fir trees, offering a unique perspective of the forest canopy. To wrap up your visit, explore the Living Forest Trail to learn stories about native flora and fauna.
