Vancouver

The major city in the province of British Columbia is just under 50 kilometers by car from the US border. Around 635,000 inhabitants live here on the west coast of Canada in an area of 115 km². A stroll through the historic old town district of Gastown and a visit to Stanley Park offer rest and relaxation - in stark contrast to the Capilano Suspension Bridge, Vancouver's most spectacular structure. The 70 m high suspension bridge is walked on 136 m of swaying planks. Outdoor experiences are the salt in the soup in Vancouver - Grouse Mountain is considered the gateway to the untouched nature of Canada. The hike on the Grouse Grind, a stepped trail, requires sturdy footwear and a good level of fitness.
