Lonely Planet review

As you walk gingerly out on to the world's longest (140m) and highest (70m) suspension bridge, swaying gently over the roiling waters of tree-lined Capilano Canyon, remember that the thick steel cables you are gripping are safely embedded in huge concrete blocks on either side. That should steady your feet - unless the teenagers are stamping across to scare the oldsters.

The region's most popular attraction - hence the summertime crowds and relentless tour buses - the grounds here also include rainforest walks, totem poles and a swinging network of smaller bridges strung between the trees. Drop by the souvenir shop, one of BC's biggest, for First Nations artwork and 'moose dropping' choccies.
