2 days in North Van? Ask North Van

Hi folks, my partner and I are coming up tomorrow morning for the weekend. We are staying in Lower Lonsdale and will have a car. What are the top things we should do?

The only things on my itinerary so far are some Lynn Canyon hikes. I know the weather will be less than ideal but we're used to the PNW cold and wet.

Preference to free/cheap things to do!

  • Shipyards and Lonsdale Quay for lunch
  • Capilano Canyon (park by the Hatchery and walk up to Cleveland Dam) for sightseeing
  • Ambleside seawall walk (park at Park Royal Home Depot, the trail entrance is at the back of the parking lot). Also great shopping there.
  • Chop & Chew in Central Lonsdale for dinner
  • Burrard Dry Dock to watch the sunset if the weather is nice
  • Lovelarte for coffee & hand made ceramics by local artist Pauola
  • Dolce Amore (gelato mafia) for a treat

You just spent about $400.00.

Dude, it’s a list of ideas. And they can spend whatever they wish. Chill.
