A paid 1.5 km elevated boardwalk through rainforest above the Mamquam River canyon and Mamquam Falls near Squamish, with a café and kids' play areas. Well run and family-friendly, but not wheelchair-accessible.
Squamish Canyon is a private attraction built around the Mamquam River canyon east of Squamish. An elevated boardwalk about 1.5 km long runs through the forest canopy to viewpoints over the river and Mamquam Falls, with bridges and interpretive signs along the way.
Reviewers rate it very highly and often mention the staff; one group said the team made arrangements so a 97-year-old parent could see part of the walk without doing the whole loop. Washrooms are clean, and a café near the end serves coffee, snacks and drinks.
It's aimed at families, with play areas, games and activities for kids along the route. The walk is comfortable, but there are long flights of stairs near the falls, and people with mobility or heart concerns found them tough. It isn't suitable for wheelchairs.
Entry is a paid ticket, cheaper online, and there are annual passes. If you only want to see the falls, there's a free public trail to Mamquam Falls next door. Parts of the walk are high above the canyon, which may bother anyone uneasy with heights.
