Lonely Planet review for Capilano Suspension Bridge
As you walk gingerly out onto one of the world’s longest (140m) and highest (70m) suspension bridges, 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 there are teenagers stamping across to scare the oldsters. It’s the region’s most popular attraction – hence the summertime crowds and relentless tour buses. The grounds here include rainforest walks, totem poles and a network of smaller bridges strung between the trees, called Treetops Adventure. Drop by the souvenir shop, one of British Columbia’s biggest, for First Nations artworks and ‘moose dropping’ choccies.

Bit touristy but a nice little adventure
steveomac recommends this,
The bridge itself is quite impressive, and for the vertigo challenged - pretty full on. The tree top boardwalk is well done, with lots of interesting facts about the forrest. I went near Halloween and the whole place was done up with pumpkin carving everywhere.
