Vancouver—British Columbia
Interactive Map
Planning Tips
Most campgrounds are outside the urban area, but that is probably desirable. I really like Golden Ears Provincial Park for accessibility to the city and the mountains. It has no hookups, but summer temperatures are mild.
Obviously Vancouver is the primary municipality for services and entertainment. It will have everything you might need.
This itinerary can be a jumping off point for Vancouver Island, Okanagan Valley, national parks in the Rocky Mountains or destinations in Washington state.
Highlights
The peninsula on that extends into the Straits of Georgia and is bordered by the confluence of the Pitt and Fraser Rivers has been inhabited for many thousands of years. Vancouver, considered by many to be Canada’s most liveable city, now occupies that region.
Like much of coastal Canada, the city owes its early success to fishing and the fur trade. In 1858, the Fraser Gold Rush brought a flood of inhabitants to the city and it continued to grow from there. Peoples from all over the globe have flocked to Vancouver making it a culturally diverse as well as a historically rich city.
