Owing to the massive fires in summer 2024, these hikes may not be accessible for some time. I encourage you to research the latest conditions on the Tourism Jasper website. If you’re heading to Jasper National Park and want to see what the fuss is really all about then make sure you do some day hikes…
St Mark’s Summit is one of the best Vancouver hikes. In fact, I like it so much that I’ve done it twice in the space of just a few weeks. If it weren’t for Panorama Ridge I might even say that it’s one of the top BC hikes. The best thing about the St Marks…
The Kennedy Falls hike in North Vancouver is ideal if you’re looking for things to do on a rainy day in Vancouver. Since you’re in the forest most of the time, you’re pretty protected by the drizzle that characterised this part of Canada from October onwards. It’s also a great option if you’re looking for…
I’ve quickly learned that Hawaii is one of the main getaways for Vancouverites. It’s not too far away from here and it guarantees some sunshine to escape the Vancouver rain. Hawaii an adventurers’ playground full of volcanoes, mountains and beaches. Of the eight main islands that make up Hawaii, Kauai is usually deemed the best for…
The Garibaldi Lake hike in Whistler stands out as one of the best hikes I’ve done recently and I’ve done a lot of incredible hikes this year. There were incredible views on our hikes in Arches National Park and our hike into the Grand Canyon itself. Yet it’s this hike to Garibaldi Lake that I…

The South Kaibab trail was one of the best hikes in the South Rim of the Grand Canyon that we did during our trip there. I kind of made it my mission to do at least one hike in every National Park we visited and our trip to the Grand Canyon National Park was no…
The Angels Landing hike in Zion National Park in Utah was one of the best hikes we did during our trip across America. While I loved many of the hikes we did while visiting numerous parks throughout the USA national park service, Zion National Park and hiking Angel’s Landing stands out as one of the…
The best things to do in Canyonlands National Park are quite varied and include scenic drives, hiking, biking, and camping. Perhaps that’s not surprising that these Canyonlands things to do are so varied since the park itself is absolutely huge covering over 330,000 acres of canyons, mesas, buttes, fins, arches, and spires in the heart…
Hikes in Arches National Park are the best way to see the impressive rock formation and experience the red rocks that make this area so beautiful. Arches National Park is best viewed on foot in my opinion. It’s how you get away from the main Arches Scenic Drive that can be busy ad slow-moving with…
