Vancouver Experiences – Stanley Park

You can have your own Vancouver experience at the GA 2017 in about 5 minutes walking distance from the GA venue – at Stanley Park. Experience the contrast between the wilderness of the urban park and the towers and skyscrapers of downtown Vancouver.


Vancouver’s first and largest urban park with 1000 acres of forest, gardens, hiking trails and beaches, offers its visitors a wide range of possibilities to disconnect from everyday life.

Lose yourself in the wilderness of 400 hectares of old-growth temperate rainforest, or visit the home of a wide variety of water birds in the Lost Lagoon and Stanley Park Nature House. Walk past popular totem poles at Brockton Point, public artworks and many more picture-perfect views along the 9 km long seawall of the park. Or take off your shoes and enjoy the sand, sun and water at the Second and Third Beach.
