Capilano Suspension Bridge
See the West Coast Rainforest from 3 Perspectives - the Suspension Bridge, Treetops Adventure & Cliffwalk!
Situated in North Vancouver’s magnificent Capilano Canyon, Capilano Suspension Bridge Park is Vancouver’s oldest visitor attraction. Since 1889, there has been a suspended bridge over the Capilano River, attracting visitors from all over the world. At the heart of the operation is a 137-meter (450 feet) long, 70-metre (230 feet) high suspended footbridge. As early as 1907, Capilano Suspension Bridge Park was a paid attraction, employing only a gatekeeper. Today, Capilano employs over 340 people in its peak season. Over the past twenty years, Capilano Suspension Bridge Park has seen a number of additions and enhancements. In addition to the thrill of crossing the bridge, guests can experience the attraction's newest additions, Cliffwalk and Treetops Adventure. Two interpretive exhibits, the Story Centre (incorporating lessons in local history) and the Living Forest (preparing guests for their walk in the forest), elevated boardwalk trails and naturalist-guided walks throughout out the West Coast rainforest, as well as several food venues and the popular Trading Post gift shop, round out the Park’s experience.Links
