Getting the Most Out of Your Trip

The journey is part of the experience.

The drive along the Sea to Sky Highway is one of the most scenic routes in British Columbia. Travelling mid-week, early-morning or late afternoon, lets you enjoy the views, take your time, and start your Squamish experience the moment you leave the city.

Getting Here

Stay a Little Longer
