Driving to Vancouver
Driving to Vancouver

During the summer months the weather and roads are busy with families towing trailers to their annual camping trips or to Calgary (975Km or 606 miles) to the east.
From the south people come from Seattle, (176 kilometers or 110 miles) from Portland (525km or 326 miles) and as far away as from San Francisco (1273 km or 791 miles) and all over the rest of the US and Canada to spend
a Vancouver vacation. Seeing all the sights to see, like Stanley Park and English Bay and lots of other things to do and daytrips out of the city like a nice drive along the Sea to Sky Highway to Whistler, stopping to take pictures along the drive and making a stop in Brackendale where they have the annual eagle count and Britannia Mines where there’s a mining museum.
