The plan
Pickup
Over Lions Gate Bridge with Stanley Park on one side and the harbour on the other.
Lynn Canyon Park
Rainforest trails, the free suspension bridge and the 30 Foot Pool. A quieter local alternative to Capilano.
Grouse Mountain
Ride the Skyride up, visit Coola at the grizzly refuge, catch the Lumberjack Show in season, and take in the view over Vancouver.
Lonsdale Quay
The market and Shipyards, with the downtown skyline across the water.
Drop-off
Drive home, or ride the SeaBus back across the harbour for fun.
Times and stops flex with the season, the weather and what your group enjoys.

Good to know
- Coola hibernates from about mid-November to mid-April. Winter visits trade the bear for snow: snowshoeing, the skating pond and lights.
- Lower Mainland residents pay less at Grouse ($74 per adult).
- The Skyride can pause in high wind. We reshuffle the day if it does.
