Day 1: Vancouver - Harrison Hot Springs - Othello Tunnels - Hells Gate - Lillooet
STOP 1: Harrison Hot Springs.
Whether you're searching for a family adventure, a romantic vacation, or a fun-filled weekend with friends, Harrison Hot Springs has it all. You may hike through the area's tall forests, or aside the lake, which stretches 60 kilometres north and is framed by snow-capped coastal mountains. Enjoy a leisurely meal, lakeside at one of the local restaurants while admiring the breathtaking views of the Coast Mountains from a patio.
STOP 2: The Othello Tunnels.
A network of historic train tunnels and bridges that cut through thick granite cliffs and over the raging Coquihalla River. The tunnels are located in Coquihalla Provincial Park, just east of Hope, BC, and the trail is a short, flat 3.5km return trip. You'll be greeted by stunning views of Tulameen Mountain.
STOP 3: Hells Gate.
Hell's Gate is a narrow and steep section of the Fraser River Canyon, where the river waters rush through. Popular due to its dramatic natural scenery and the historical significance of the area for the indigenous peoples and early settlers. Very well known for river rafting adventures.
STOP 4: We head to Lillooet.
With beautiful mountain vistas, lakes and rivers, Lillooet is indelibly associated with the Gold Rush era and, strangely enough, camels, which have been commemorated in the Fraser River bridge.
Have a leisurely evening and spend the night.
Day 2: Lillooet - Whistler - Brandywine Falls - Shannon Falls - Vancouve
After breakfast, we continue our adventure.
STOP 1: Whistler.
This is North America's largest skiable area in a resort.
World-renowned, it is ranked one of the best destinations by travel magazines year after year. Arriving, you'll find yourself in the charming streets, surrounded by tourists and locals alike.
There is a whole slew of restaurants in the Village for you to choose from for lunch on this day,
and a whole variety of activities. One of the activities included in our tour is the Peak 2 Peak Gondola, which spans high between the peaks of Whistler and Blackcomb mountains, offering views of everything from the mountains, to the lakes, to the Village nestled in between down below.
Afterwards, spend a couple hours enjoying the Village.
STOP 2: Brandywine Waterfall.
230 feet high, it is majestic and beautiful.
STOP 3: Shannon Falls.
At 1105 feet, it is another showstopping waterfall in the rainforest.
STOP 4: We return to Vancouver.
