Spanning 137 meters across and 70 meters above the Capilano River, the Capilano Suspension Bridge offers an exhilarating perspective on Canada's lush Pacific rainforest. This iconic Vancouver attraction draws visitors from around the world, eager to traverse its swaying planks and revel in the stunning natural scenery.
Activities and Attractions
Beyond the main suspension bridge, the park features several other attractions that enhance the visitor experience. The Cliffwalk, a cantilevered walkway clinging to the granite cliff high above Capilano Canyon, provides heart-pounding views of the river below. Treetops Adventure offers a squirrel’s eye view of a thriving coastal rainforest as guests move from one Douglas fir tree platform to another, connected by suspension bridges, some reaching as high as 30 meters above the forest floor.
For those looking to delve deeper into the rich history and culture of the area, the park offers guided nature tours, storytelling, and exhibits that detail the lives of British Columbia’s indigenous peoples. Seasonal events, like the Canyon Lights in winter, transform the park into a dazzling festival of lights, highlighting the beauty of the natural surroundings in a luminescent display.
