Description

Hike or drive from the Capilano Suspension Bridge to take a guided tour of this immense edifice that captures and stores the region's water supply. Surrounded by lush forest and spanning 640 feet across the canyon, the dam has a bridge that visitors can cross to watch the water's torrential release. Seventeen billion gallons of the life-giving liquid are stored here. The free bused tours led by the dam's staff inform visitors about where the water comes from, where it's going, and everything in between.
