Squamish Canyon






Journey Through Nature’s Masterpiece - A NEW EXPERIENCE OPENING AUGUST 2025
Immerse yourself in wonder at Squamish Canyon, a new journey through rare coastal rainforest, where paths and elevated walkways guide you gently into the heart of nature. Here the experience is intentionally created; every sightline and structure is designed to honour and preserve the land.
Elevated walkways guide you through a breathtaking experience, past cascading waterfalls, deep into the UNESCO-designated Howe Sound Biosphere. These carefully built boardwalks allow you to explore the breathtaking rainforest safely, while preserving its delicate ecosystem. Along the way, thoughtfully curated narratives bring the history, culture, and biodiversity of the region to life. Nestled deep within the rainforest, the Forest Lounge offers a place to pause. Kids will love the nature-inspired play area, while others can sit and enjoy an assortment of food and beverages.
