Capilano Suspension Bridge Park was a great stop on our Vancouver trip, especially with teenagers in tow who really enjoyed the adventure of it all. It is definitely a bit pricey, but the overall experience made it feel well worth it and truly memorable. It was super cool to wander through a temperate rainforest, which was such a fun contrast to the tropical ones we'd visited in Hawaii. The scenery is gorgeous. We were lucky enough to spot a bald eagle out in the wild, and the raptor exhibit let us see owls and falcons up close, which was amazing. If you are looking for a unique, memorable outdoor activity in the area that keeps teens engaged, this is a solid place to check out! read more

Super cool park! I definitely enjoyed the visit. The staff were all super friendly, and the guided nature walk was interesting and incredibly informative. The price felt a bit high, but the biggest selling point for me was the included bus to and from Canada place, and the fact that they'll hang on to luggage for you in a secure space so that you're not dragging bags along this walk. It ended up being worth it! read more

We had a such a wonderful experience and a fun time here. The suspension bridge was a real adventure. Crossing it was adrenaline inducing, but yet an adventure. Being immersed in the nature surrounded by big trees was incredibly therapeutic and the board walk paths made it enjoyable to venture around. Though it was crowded, the routes were well organized so everything flowed smoothly. They have a small eatery, shop and ice cream parlor, which one should definitely check out when onsite. Also check out the live banana slug showing and hawk show. Staff here were all friendly and helpful. read more

This is a great place to experience history and nature from the city limits. The park staff do a great job of narrating stories about the Totem poles. They run every hour so plan to be at the station on time. The park's highlight is the suspension bridge but there are also a lot of other things to do: The tree houses, the cliff hike are some of the must dos. You get a proper rain forest experience in a cold place like Canada. It is a fun outing for families. read more

Super fun day hanging out there! It's probably good for a couple of hours/half day. Could possibly extend with kids of take your time. We were a group of adults so we were there about 3 hours. Lots of parking and very clean place. The scenery is amazing. Prices are high to get in. It is privately owned so I am sure that they have lots of upkeep. Worth the price to go. Suspension bridge is fun and connects both sides of the park. There's also a cliff walk and tree house walk, don't skip anything as these are the only 3 big attractions. There's also are educational tour throughout and interactive learning activities. There's a sit down restaurant, a snack place, and two other snack shacks. They also have a store. Food prices aren't terrible. Lots of bathrooms throughout. For sure worth a visit! Super beautiful and well kept. Amazing!! read more

OK THIS WAS AN AMAZING PARK. 75 CAD per person but you have access to the cliff walk, suspension bridge, treetops adventure, and all sorts of photo opportunities! Go early!!! We went 30 minutes after opening and it was more enjoyable as there were barely any crowds, the air was crisp, and the temperature was lovely in early July. My husband and I spent a good time going through the entire park and snapping photos. We ended up spending about 2.5 hours in the park. Towards the end of our visit it was about 10-11am and during that time the treetop adventures as well as the suspension bridge were backlogged. The park was absolutely breathtaking and had little fun educational stops (ie. The origins of the park, little fun facts along the park about nature, banana slug exhibit, falcons and owls, etc.). The staff is friendly and enthusiastic on educating visitors. The park also has cute little gift shops and a few places to grab some grub when you get hungry! If you're visiting Vancouver, the park is a must! read more

Came here after lunch today and spent about an hour here which felt like enough time to do the main stuff without dragging it out. Took the free shuttle from Canada Place. Looked like it comes about every 15 min and took around 30 min to get there with all the stops. Main suspension bridge is the big draw but the whole place is set up really well. Nice walking paths, treetop walk, cliffwalk, and a lot of good spots for pictures. Easy place to do with family and not too hard to get around. I'd say it's worth doing at least once if you're visiting Vancouver, especially if you don't want to deal with driving since the free shuttle made it easy. read more

One of the most beautiful attractions in the Vancouver area and absolutely worth the trip to North Vancouver. Most people come for the famous suspension bridge, but the entire park is impressive. Walking high above the forest canopy on the Treetops Adventure gives you a unique perspective of the rainforest, and the Cliffwalk provides some incredible views for those comfortable with heights. The bridge itself is longer and higher than it looks in photos, with just enough sway to make things exciting without being scary. Everywhere you look there are towering trees, rushing water below, and stunning Pacific Northwest scenery. Yes, admission isn't cheap, but the park is well maintained, the staff are friendly, and there is much more to do than simply walk across the bridge. Plan to spend a few hours exploring everything. A must-visit attraction if you're in Vancouver and want to experience the natural beauty that makes British Columbia so special. read more

Capilano Suspension Bridge Park - Parks Near Me - North Vancouver, British Columbia

Solid 4.5/5. This place is MAGICAL. We came at 7pm and still had two hours to explore the place - the minimum time I'd say to set aside for it! If you love the outdoors, love the adult version of tree houses, can appreciate some high production value to the construction of outdoor living space and have a couple hours to give, you will ADORE this place. If I were a local, I would have membership here since I've already paid for one admission. This is a place I would come with out-of-town relatives/friends maybe... every several years? The main knock on the place is the hefty price tag. But if you only knew how much it really costs to build something of this caliber, then you'd understand the investment the owners put into the place. Come after 5pm for discounted pricing!!! If you come during holidays from Halloween to Valentine's Day and when it's dark and you'll experience all the lights! I would say this is a must-visit for out-of-towners if you like hiking and the outdoors. Couple it with a trip to Stanley Park for the day and you've got yourself a FULL DAY of fun! read more

Definitely worth venturing out to North Vancouver to visit this suspension bridge park! At the recommendation of our hotel concierge, we caught an easy bus ride to the park, then on the return home... we ubered to Lonsdale Quay for lunch and caught a seabus back to downtown. This was a great way to do a little of everything! As for the park itself... beautiful and clean. There is one main suspension bridge and many many other smaller ones. Being in the trees crossing all those bridges and seeing the views was absolutely worth the price of admission. They even have a small eatery in the middle of the park where you can get the best hot chocolate and otter balls. So good! My kids (13 and 15) loved this park and we spent a couple hours here! read more

Having never been on a suspension bridge before, I appreciated how well laid out the park with clear guidelines on how to properly cross the bridge to maximize your enjoyment. Despite visiting during the peak season, the bridge was not crowded which made it easy to walk across it at your own pace. It was also nice to walk along the cliff side and check out the discovery attractions near the ponds. I wish the public transit stops were closer to the park entrance, but that's not a fault to the park itself. read more

Visiting Capilano Suspension Bridge Park was one of the highlights during our time in Vancouver. We caught the free shuttle from downtown, which was quick, easy to find, and surprisingly efficient. There were a few stops along the way, but overall the ride was smooth and fast--no stress, no hassle. We arrived around 2:30pm, which turned out to be the perfect "off time." Visiting during the holidays meant we were able to experience the park during their Canyon Lights event, and it was absolutely magical. I love Christmas and holiday lights, so being there early enough to explore in daylight to get great photos and stay through nightfall was the best of both worlds. The decorations transformed the entire park and really brought the holiday spirit to life. We spent a couple of hours wandering, soaking it all in. There were so many Instagram-worthy moments, interactive activities for kids, and fun decorations along the way. One unexpected highlight? Spotting a couple of bald eagles, which was incredibly exciting and made the experience feel even more special. My son and I watched in awe as the eagle sat perched high up in a tree. We also stopped to enjoy some poutine and live music on the gift shop patio, which was the perfect cozy break. After dark, the park did get extremely busy with many lines forming, but because we arrived earlier, we had no issues walking straight onto the bridge or other attractions without waiting in long lines. Timing really is everything, and 2:30pm was just right. Before leaving, I picked up a few gifts from the shop, which had a great mix of affordable souvenirs and higher-end items. While it's definitely on the pricier side, I truly felt it was worth it. The atmosphere, the lights, the nature, and the overall experience made it memorable and festive--and it completely got me into the holiday spirit. If you're visiting Vancouver, especially during the holidays, I highly recommend making a stop at Capilano Suspension Bridge Park. read more

A super fun park to explore, especially when they have their light exhibits! Coming from a person who is terrified of heights and prefers to have stand on solid/still ground, the suspension bridge is a lot of fun. It is pretty terrifying the first time, but when you have to cross back over (and you've accepted the fact that there's no other way to get back) it's actually super fun. Also, if you get the chance to come here for the Valentine's lights it is stunning and you won't regret! read more

What a fun and fantastic experience. You just have to make sure you're not too afraid of heights. We came during the holidays (around Thanksgiving time) where the Bridge Park was lit up with holiday lights and the Christmas theme. We were told that there were some discounts such as getting a ticket online or getting a discount ticket form our hotel. This was easy to do and get to. The other lovely part is that there are shuttles that run throughout Vancouver in order to get to the Bridge Park. We stayed at the Fairmont Waterfront, so we were super fortunate that the shuttle was literally right next to the hotel. Super easy to get to with a timetable that was available at the hotel and online as well as at the site. When we went to the Bridge Park, it was raining on and off, so the park is definitely open rain or shine for the most part. Getting in was a breeze and wasn't overly busy. There was a live musician near the start of the journey who was great. The gift shop was expansive, and there were a few spots scattered throughout with hot chocolate and other treats. When you first get in, you see a map of the entire venues and 'attractions' - basically hiking trails in really fantastic ways. And there was a lot to do that took up at least 3 hours of our time which we rushed thru a bit as the park was about to close. My favorites included the bridge itself (longer than expected and pretty high up); the tree top trails that really seemed super long with wonderful little nuggets of information about the forest and area; and the cliffside walk which also included facts about the land while going across a gated area. Each area to me was really lovely to walk around and seemed crafted with a lot of care. Yes, it's a bit touristy and as one of my friends may border a little corny to some. But I think if you're a fan of nature walks; don't mind the heights (there sure are a lot of them); and especially go during special themed times, I think it's worth the time. read more

One of the most visited attractions just outside of the city of Vancouver. I love this little adventure! The bridge itself stretches 450 ft over the river and stands 230 get above the river . So yeah pretty cool ! The park showcases the bridge well, you sway across gently with great views. Also there are a few other cool parts you must do. The cliff walk is neat. Attached to the granite cliff it's a narrow walk but not scary. Then the mini suspension bridges in the treetops was a fun part. High in the trees again with awesome views. You just kinda stand sometimes on the bridges and admire all that's around you. Also a few exhibits showcases the ecosystems. A great place 20 mins from the city for views. Nature and a little thrill seeking. Super safe and really nicely maintained. We went during fall and the had Halloween all around the park . Very extensive decor. Can't imagine it at Christmas! Highly recommended this place. Outside of city life but so worth it. read more

I came here for the second time in my life, and it felt surreal. The first time I visited, I had just found out I was pregnant with my daughter -- that was 13 years ago. This time, I actually got to share the experience with her, which made it feel full‑circle in the best way. We had a great time crossing the bridge, even though it was packed. The only irritating part was how slow everyone moved -- people were holding onto the sides for dear life, stopping in the middle to take pictures, and making the bridge bounce even more. It definitely tested our patience, but we still enjoyed it. Some of the attractions felt a little thin for the ticket price. It was almost $100 for the both of us, and that was with a student discount (never leave the house without your school ID -- you never know when it'll save you). Even so, the grounds were really clean, and they had a scavenger hunt activity for kids that my daughter absolutely loved. There was also a busy restaurant and a nice gift shop on the premises, which added to the experience. Overall, it really felt like a full‑circle moment -- coming back after all these years, remembering who I was then, and getting to enjoy it now with my daughter. Despite a few hiccups, it was a meaningful and memorable visit. read more

I visited with a group of 11 from out of town, and while the prices are a bit high at $75 for adults, there's a nice perk for BC locals like me. Just show your ID and your ticket from that day, and you get a full year of free admission -- which is fantastic! I've been to Capilano many times and always enjoy it. The grounds are kept clean, and the washrooms are tidy, making the visit even more pleasant. I love the Tree Tops Adventures, Cliff Walk, and the bridge -- it feels like walking through pure nature. My family from out of town really had a wonderful experience, and I truly enjoyed sharing this beautiful place with them! read more

One of my favorite attractions in BC! We came at a time where the place is starting to show fall colors and getting decked for the holidays, and with the christmas lights, made this place even more magical. This is a place for both the young and young at heart. If you are afraid of heights, you can still enjoy walking around the grounds without crossing the bridge and watch guests crossing from a distance. Loved the Treetop adventure, Cliff walk, and crossing the bridge itself. Beautiful nature sceneries everywhere. Definitely a must if ever in BC, especially during the holidays! read more

Definitely a must for anyone visiting Vancouver for their first time. The entrance fee is a little expensive but definitely worth all the crazy views. My wife and I took a free shuttle bus from the Grand Hyatt Vancouver hotel which only took about 20 mins. The bell hop at the hotel even gave me a $5 off entrance fee coupon when I asked him for directions to the shuttle. Gve yourself at least 3-4hrs to completely walk around and take in all the fantastic scenery Capilano has to offer. They have some snacks stations to get hot coffee and hot cocoa along with a full on restaurant to get a full meal. When you are done with sight seeing definitely drop by the gift shop and pick up some goodies to bring back home. read more

This was far and away one of the worst experiences of my life. When we were planning the Vancouver part of our vacation this place and Seattle's Space Needle were places I voiced my opinion to. This place was even worse than what I imagined. Children running and jumping on the first section made it even more unpleasant, especially for a 70 + year old with less than perfect balance. I told my wife to head out on her own to visit the other two trails. She quickly returned to where I was waiting at the snack bar. She couldn't get up the massive amount of steps to get there. Strike two. She got some water and has headed up to the 3rd section "Nature's Edge and Critter's Hallow". The truly horrorshow fault is that if you make it one way up the suspension bridge and not like it you have no choice but to repeat it in order to get back to leave the place. VISITOR'S BE WARNED!!!!!!! read more

The pros - a well realized tourist attraction with a suspension bridge, cliff walk, sky walk. Very well designed and engineered and located in a beautiful canyon. The so-so. It's really a tourist attraction closer to Wally world than a nature experience. A whole section of shops and little food stores that feel like amusement parks everywhere. The cons - the people - it's very crowded and my god what did people do before selfies? Every pod of people stopped numerous times to take selfies of themselves, their groups. One woman was holding up 8 of us as she struggled to get the perfect selfie. One person in her group noted the crowd waiting to get by. Her comment / they'll just have to wait. Made it impossible to get lost in the experience. And the price - at $80 a person just too steep for what you get. My recommendation would be to pass on this outing. read more

There is paid parking near the business. The lot that we parked in was close to the entrance. We brought our tickets in advance to the park but you can also purchase them at the entrance. Inside we had to stand in multiple lines to access the bridge and other attractions but the lines were organized. We also got to see animals such as an owl and an eagle in the park. The employees provided informative information about the animals. There are also multiple souvenir shops in the park where you can buy gifts like shirts and food items such as ice cream and fudge. The fudge was very good. read more

Date of visit: July 15, 2025 We visited for the first time about 10 years ago and it remained a highlight of our time in Vancouver, despite my boyfriend's--now husband--fear of heights. He conquered that fear then and again now. The cost to get in is not small, but I suspect a large part of that is the transportation that they have set up, which while nice, is one of the bigger reasons I couldn't give a higher score. Last time we visited the drivers were fun and engaging, sharing information about the city, Canada, and the park. This time around the bus drivers had nothing to say and even though we were the only ones on the bus from Canada Place to Capilano, he felt the need to use the intercom to announce our arrival and the time the last bus was leaving... The bridge is as awe-inspiring as I remembered, and the certificate of survival remains a fun touch as you exit. If you've not ever been, you really should check this out and if possible, go with the evening ticket. It's cheaper and the crowds are better. Steer clear of the gift shop unless you absolutely have to have some Capilano merch; the other items here are marked up significantly from what you'll pay over in Gastown. read more

Super cool experience but do note it is VERY crowded. It's a major tourist attraction and caters to the cruise passengers. Booked thru TripAdvisor it comes out to about $50ish USD pp - which is a bit pricey for a place without rides lol . But it is super neat . AND they do provide free shuttle service to the park from 3 stops in downtown Vancouver, with the main stop at Canada Place (cruise port). AND they offer free luggage storage during the busy summer season. The suspension bridge is amazing (given that it was built originally in the late 1800s). But really the fairly new Cliff Walk was the neatest. We went on a Sunday and it was bumper to bumper people on the bridge and tree tops walk. Big gift shop, a full service restaurant and quick snack shop and lots and lots of walkways built down the forest too. We spent about 3 hours here and had hit almost every trail (this includes stopping for coffee and resting). Well organized! Def worth coming here at least once! read more

When we were planning our trip to Vancouver, Capilano Suspension Bridge Park kept coming up on all our research as a must stop destination. I love nature and I also like living on the edge a little so this was right up my alley. It is located in North Vancouver which was a easy drive from where we were staying. I was expecting to be deep in the woods but the park sits right off a busy road. There is parking across the street which is a pay to park lot. Check the weather before you go because it does rain in these parts often. We came prepared with umbrellas and proper attire, though carrying an umbrella can be annoying. Tickets are pricey at 78 Canadian bucks which equals about 53 American bucks. So this place has lots to do other than just the bridge. We started off at the Cliffwalk which was one of my favorite parts of the park. You get to walk on these bridges that are literally hanging off the side of cliffs and are just suspended by cables. It's a tad bit scary and I'm not even afraid of heights. Keep in mind that there are lots of stairs and inclines throughout the park so you will get a workout. As you make your way around the park there is alot of informational things to see like totem poles and fun facts. If you got the time, you can learn many things about the area. We then made our way to the main attraction, the suspension bridge. In my head I thought it was be a chill walk across the river, but this thing wobbles. From the minute you step on until you get off there is alot of movement. The height on this wasn't as scary as the cliff but it was more of the trying to stay upright at times that was part of the fun. After you cross, you enter into a rainforest where there are more activities like the Treetop Adventure where you can get a birds eye view of the rainforest. You immerse yourself up in the trees and move around with more smaller suspension bridges. You can then go in the opposite direction and get lower into the forest and immerse yourself on the ground level. On the main side of the park, they have a few dining options like a full service restaurant called the Cliff House Restaurant. They also have a casual spot called the Loggers grill for items like burgers or hot dogs. On the far side of the bridge they have another casual spot called the Cabin where you can get items baked goods and hot and cold drinks. And of course you have your big gift shop with lots of cool items for purchase. I made sure and picked up some Canadian souvenirs to take back to my friends and family. Overall, I really had a good time here. Yes it's pricey, but you can make a whole day out of exploring this place. Once you pay, you have unlimited access to the whole park. It's definitely a must stop if you are in the BC area. read more

On a chill Friday, my partner and I were looking for a fun adventurous activity to do and we decided on going to the Capilano Suspension Bridge during the canyon lights event. We booked our entry tickets for 3:30 pm so that we could still see the sun and enjoy the lights. FYI, parking in the parking lot adjacent to the park is a flat rate for up to 3 hours, so plan accordingly. Anyways, they have a few different sections that include the cliff walk and the tree walk as well. Every section is so thoughtfully built and is genuinely super beautiful and sound. I think we timed our entry perfectly as we got to enjoy a lot of the views and nature in sunlight, but then the canyon lights took over at sunset and were just stunning. With so many different light attractions and the daring bridges over the trees, the experience was great. I would definitely come back to enjoy the views. read more

What a fun adventure at Capilano suspension bridge. We were visiting in Vancouver and wanted something to do for a sunny afternoon. This park was perfect. Numerous walkways and trails offered inviting walks and or hikes into the trees to see the beautiful waterfalls and forests. A suspension bridge itself can be a little daunting, but I took up the challenge and crossed for the magnificent views of the canyon below with its waterfalls and flowing water. There are snack stations, located numerous places throughout the park and we enjoyed a hot chocolate and coffee. We also spent some time in the gift shop perusing everything from jewelry to syrups, to T-shirts, to stuffies. Parking was easy accessible across the street and the park employees were courteous and helpful in answering our questions and steering us to trails.

Went to see the Capilano Suspension Bridge after 5PM to get a break on the ticket price, also a discount for buying on their official website. Arrived about 4:30 and asked if we could get in. Let us in no problem. BUT - headed to the bridge and it was very packed, it is a cable suspension bridge so as people move it does get wobbly. Small children and the elderly were having trouble navigating with the sway of the bridge but all was ok. After crossing the rest of the pack was really nice. Boardwalk paths, quiet parts through the trees, the tree top walk was really great, got to see the raptors ridge display briefly as it closed at 5PM. THEN once again back across the packed suspension bridge. All in all I'd say it was worth it, but maybe try to be there as soon as it opens for a better bridge crossing experience. read more

This was such a cool and memorable experience and easily one of the highlights of my time in Vancouver. From the moment you enter, you're completely immersed in nature--towering trees, lush greenery, and the sound of flowing water everywhere you go. The suspension bridge itself is iconic and exhilarating, but what really stood out to me was how much there is to explore beyond just the bridge. The elevated walkways through the forest, the beautifully maintained trails, and the peaceful streams and scenery make it feel like you've stepped into another world. Every turn felt photo-worthy and calming at the same time. I also loved the thoughtful touches throughout the park--the wooden pathways, scenic viewpoints, and cozy forest vibes really enhance the overall experience. It's well organized, easy to navigate, and clearly cared for. Whether you're visiting Vancouver for the first time or have been here before, this is absolutely worth the visit. A perfect mix of adventure, nature, and tranquility. I'd 100% recommend it and would gladly come back again. read more
