With the wilderness at its back and on its doorstep, Vancouver’s day trips offer plenty of fresh air and an exhilarating array of escapes and outdoor adventure options. Mountains, creeks, canyons, and forests await to the north, while dozens of misty islands bask in the waters of the Georgia Strait, … more a scenic ferry or floatplane ride west of the city. Inland, forests and regional parks hide beautiful lakes, picnic areas, and tiny towns. All of these wonders are within two hours of the city. Nearby ski resorts include Mount Seymour (25 minutes from downtown), Grouse Mountain (15 minutes from downtown), and Cypress Mountain (30 minutes from downtown).
