Scout Trips to Whistler & Vancouver, Canada

Known for its rugged good looks and bluer-than-blue lakes, Canada’s why they call it the ‘great’ outdoors. Head to Canada’s adventure capital, Whistler, for action-packed days of ziplining through valleys, hiking up mountains and Tarzan-ing through treetops. Then spend a day in the city of Vancouver for a mix of urban culture and leafy rainforest walks – the best way to finish off your Scout trip to Canada.
