Attraction in Vancouver

Suspended bridge and cliffwalk over a rainforest canyon in North Vancouver.

What to Expect

The Capilano Suspension Bridge stretches 137 metres across and 70 metres above a rainforest canyon on the North Shore. Originally built in 1889, the bridge is now the centrepiece of a 27-hectare park of cliffwalks, treetop platforms and nature trails.

The Cliffwalk hugs a granite wall above the river, and the Treetops Adventure threads a series of suspended walkways through the canopy. A free shuttle runs from downtown Vancouver to the park entrance.

Best Time to Visit

Year-round; the bridge is magical lit up for Canyon Lights each winter.

Practical Tips

Located at 3735 Capilano Road in North Vancouver. A free shuttle departs from Canada Place downtown; allow 2โ€“3 hours including the shuttle ride.

Where to Stay

Downtown and Yaletown for walkability; the West End for beaches; Gastown for historic character.
