My Favorite BC Route

Want to know what my own personal favorite route If I visited BC?  I would first start in Vancouver at Granville Island walking around enjoying the sights sounds and people.  There you can jet ski, boat, take water taxi's, great dining and a night club or theatre production all at the inner harbor of Vancouver BC!  Catch downtown Vancouver with its tall skyscrapers and watch the float planes take off for Victoria.  Better Yet take a 2 day mini holiday and fly to Victoria and stay at their harbor!  Grouse mountain and Stanley Park is just a stone throw away for a quick drive through!    I would head to Whistler and its four season playground.  Next to get a taste of the old west, The Flying "U" ranch with it's 100's of acres of unsupervised horseback riding.  A horse lovers dream.  Barkervilles old mining town atmosphere with their many actors would be a natural follow up.  You feel almost like there will be a gunfight down main street at any minute.  Then would come the tall mountains and lakes of Jasper and Banff.  Continue on to settle down in the okanagan at kelowna's city park with all the water sports you can think off or Skaha lake in pentiction with  wrightsbeach camping for a more relaxing pace.


Vancouver B.C. Canada

    Wow what a city!  You could spend weeks alone exploring this city and surrounding areas.  Most of the highlight spots are listed below but if you get a chance to drive downtown amongst its towering skyscrapers don't forget to stop and watch the helicopters and float planes take off from the end of Canada Place.

    Better yet take a float plane excursion to Victoria on Vancouver Island and stay at a hotel overnight by their harbor.  See the harbor walk merchants, minstrels and take a whale watching tour!

Also see the massive Cruise Ships while boarding for Alaska!

Best Vancouver Campground!

There is nothing like  sitting around a campfire  or exploring a new city in the company of friends and family.  From exciting to calm and relaxing all in one day.  What could be better! 


 

Granville Market

Spactacular Grandville Island Market.  From renting boats, seadoos or paddle boards to to explore the inner or outer harbor.  Open air market, great dining, entertainment including theatres!

 

 

Grouse Mountain

Grouse mountain has an unprecedented view of Vancouver.  It also has many shows from bears to eagles that you just can't afford to miss!

Whistler

Flying U Ranch

Barkerville

Whistler is a 4 season playground!  Here you can ski (yes even in the summer), mountain bike, canoe, hike and so much more.  Great spa's, fine dining and fabulous night entertainment await you!  Catch a gondola and bring a rented mountain bike for an exhilerating ride down the mountain!

How can you measure the fun and experience of the flying "U".  Into horses the western style?  Its the only place I have seen where they outfit you and send you off in litteraly hundreds of miles ofprovincial parks!  A True western experience for the whole family!

Come visit a true mining town from the past filled with plays and actors that put you in a bygone era!

Jasper

You can't measure the screne beauty of jasper and the surrounding area.  If Alpine Hiking is your goal you have come to the right place!

Banff

Banff and its graciers make you contimplate life.  Again the surround beauty of the mountainous area and lake louise is unparalled in all of Canada!

Okanagan

Getting back to the "warmer" side of things you will find the semi arid climate of the Okanagan intriging.  Visiting Kelowna's City Park opens up almost every watersport in the citys centre.  At the same time casino's and night life doesn't dissapoint either!

For the quieter side camp on the beach at Wrights beach campground!
