What travellers are saying
- Sue SWest Yorkshire, UK112 contributionsVisited as part of a city tour of Vancouver. I'm not good with heights but it wasn't nearly as scary as I had imagined. There wasn't much flow in the river which might have made it more spectacular. Views from the bridge were stunning.
There is also a tree top walk through the park which is a lovely thing to do as well.
You can also do a cliff walk around the side of the ravine but that was too high for me.
The park is pleasant to walk round but quite touristy. Big gift shop.
Plenty places to eat, the salmon burger was really good.
Worth a visit but not as impressive as I had imagined.Written October 2, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Alight at Duva Road and walk backwards for about 500m to the entrance. It was a Friday and it was not very crowded but there was a logjam at the 50m suspension bridge.
We hiked for about 3 hours and along the trails met many lovely dogs 🐕 with their friendly owners 😀. The Baden Powell Trail is listed as an intermediate trek and there are other trails such as Sky to Sea Trail etc.
There are some café/shops at the start near the suspension bridge but the food are overpriced.
It's an enjoyable hike as I believe compared to Capilano Suspension Bridge, it is much less crowded.Written September 9, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We went to the lumberjack show which was very entertaining and funny. Bird show was informative. Great to see the different birds up close
The grizzly habitat was fun. Coola and Grinder were great! Probably the highlight for me. We saw a ranger give a talk about the bears. Skyride to the lookout point was very scenic.
Food was good at the BBQ place on site.Written August 24, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The views were stunning and there was plenty of space to sit by the bay and watch the kayaks and paddle boards. We spent time in the small village (currently having a lot of work on the road) and bought excellent ice creams. This is such a beautiful area and well worth a visit (avoid busy times if possible).Written July 1, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- LMroadtripperHouston, TX23 contributionsFREE, as opposed to the highly-developed Capilano Bridge park area. We visited both. Totally different vibe. Lynn Canyon was much less traveled and thus much quieter. We enjoyed our hike here.Written September 25, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- WorldTravelSince199559 contributionsFantastic nature trail composed of stones and log stairs for 800m elevation over 3 kilometres. One hour is doable with no breaks if you are ok-conditioned. Sneakers are good at least if no rain. Fun fact: Canucks hockey player Daniel Sedin did this 11 times a day with average 1h/round.Written August 27, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- hunglowPhuket, Thailand1,580 contributionseven though it was cloudy we enjoyed the day. the ride up was peaceful the ride down was not. School kids. It is ok it is a kids activity. The lumberjack show was entertaining and had partial views from the top but we were just too early. Would repeat as there is enough to do in a afternoonWritten September 3, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- andrew kNew Tecumseth, Canada6 contributionsAmazing hiking, I didn’t make it all the way to the top as I was with my 10 year old son and the sun was setting but he had no problem with the difficulty of the hike. The views from even half way up the Mystery Lake trail are amazing. I do recommend to bring a bathing suit and towel as there is a cool lake for swimming about 30 minutes into the hike. Do take the “bear in the area” signs serious if the sign is out. We saw one on the trail as we came around a corner but it didn’t bother with us thankfully. Trail and lake was not to busy on a sunny Friday afternoon for us.Written September 2, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- ginnywongNorth Vancouver, Canada14 contributionsa place you can enjoy peace and quite, see the lions on the top of the mountain, enjoy your picnic lunch or immerse in the forest trailsWritten February 5, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Shoshana & Mich... W7 contributionsThis is a fascinating and successful effort to increase the salmon population in the region. The signage was pretty good but it would be great to have staff or volunteers on hand to answer questions.Written September 7, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- BernieCanada362 contributionsA gorgeous park with scenic views of the mountains, the Capilano River, and the Cleveland Dam. The place is ideal for a family picnic and a relaxing afternoon rest.
The trailhead is comfortable for recreational distant walking or hiking. Further down the trail is the Capilano River Hatchery and it’s amazing to watch the spawning ponds and jumping salmon.
A peaceful place to commune with nature.Written October 5, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The ride lasted for just a few minutes, but it was very relaxing and well organized. Nirth Vancouver is a lovely place to go to, with lots of eateries and pubs (among other things). The view of the city is also beautiful. But what I liked the most was exploring the Quay Market and Food Hall itself, with all its food kiosks and shops. There's a good selection of international cuisine to choose from. We opted for some Mexican food, which was great.Written August 14, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- NorthVanClaireNorth Vancouver, Canada6 contributionsVisited with my 11 y.o. son on a spur of the moment outing; rode our bikes there so easily found "parking" on a busy day right next to the entrance. They had a special visit from a reptile sanctuary which was the purpose of visiting however my son really enjoyed the ongoing exhibits as much as the guests. Thoroughly enjoyed our time spent there.Written December 19, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Kauser AHarrow, UK64 contributionsOh what an utterly amazing location a little off the main tourist market route , but near capilano bridge, north Vancouver . Worth taking the the time out to visit lynn falls if your in downtown Vancouver , little bit of trek on multiple transport methods starting at Chinatown stadium tubes, seabus and then bus upto bottom of the entrance to lynn falls . We did the twin falls, quite a quick steep hike but worth every step , good leg workout day for sure either exceptional waterfalls ! Do it again any time .Written July 18, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
