This is a lovely park not far from central North Vancouver. It is a lovely picnic spot but it also offers both short and long hikes. Please prepare appropriately before heading into the woods. Carry the essentials, never hike alone, and leave a message with a friend.
Before or after, stop in at the "End of the Line Cafe" located near the park entrance.

Sightseeing
Lonsdale Quay Market provides numerous shops and food options including our favourite "The Soup Meister." From here, enjoy the views of downtown.
The quay is also a public transit hub where local buses and the seabuses to downtown meet.
Additionally, the nearby Shipyard Square and pier are great for a stroll. Shipyard Square often has live music on the weekends in the evening and food trucks on Friday nights.

This is a tourist hub and possibly, North Vancouver's most popular tourist attraction. The park offers a little of everything including some cultural education, some historical artifacts, a fantastic natural setting, and the exhilaration a crossing the lengthy Capilano Suspension Bridge and walking along a cliff's edge on the Cliffwalk.
