5 Outdoor Activities You Can Do This Summer! … Did I mention they’re free?!

Do you ever find yourself sitting inside on a sunny day thinking about what you could be doing? We’ve all been there! The next time you find yourself looking for things to do, try one of these outdoor activities!

 

Cypress Mountain

 

If you’ve been to Cypress you’ve most likely gone when it was covered in snow! Well, in the summer when the snow has melted and the ski hills are clear, you’re more than welcome to hike to the top. In fact, along the way you will find several lake trails that are absolutely stunning! If you can manage to head over on a weekday morning you’ll find there are much fewer people making it a very peaceful hike. Starting from the Cypress Mountain Ski Resort, it will take you about 45 minutes to get to the beautiful Cabin Lake where you can freshen up in the cold but clear water.

Lynn Canyon

 

If you love suspension bridges, waterfalls, swimming, and hiking; then Lynn Canyon is the perfect place to go! It is the largest park in the North Vancouver region with a variety of things to do and see. Once you pass over the suspension bridge you have access to several different trails offering breathtaking views. North of the suspension bridge is the 30 Foot Pool, which makes an excellent place for a picnic and a swim on a hot day. If you head East, not far off is a bridge overlooking the stunning Twin Falls.
