Canyon Lights at Capilano Suspension Bridge
byUp in the crisp North Shore mountain air, with the aroma of evergreens and a rushing river below, the Capilano Suspension Bridge Park is lit up with thousands upon thousands of twinkling lights for the 10th year of Canyon Lights. Featuring the world’s tallest living Christmas tree — a 250 year old Douglas-fir at 153 feet tall and still growing! — Canyon Lights at Capilano Suspension Bridge offers a festive experience for families from near and far.
