Ancient Trees of Vancouver Walking Tour
Beskrivelse
Dette er Vancouver's eneste gamle store træ tur. Inden for gåafstand fra centrum af Vancouver vil du blive guidet af velkendte store træ søgeren Colin Spratt gennem Vancouver sidste gamle skov beliggende i historiske Stanley Park. Turen varer omkring 3 timer, og i den periode vil du besøge gigantiske gamle cedertræer over 800 år gamle cedertræer, ophøjede fyrtårne så høje som skyskrabere, og du vil også lære om parkens historie. Ved hjælp af gamle kort, postkort, der er over hundrede år gamle, og billeder fra Vancouvers arkiv, samler vi historien om den gamle skov og det urbane miljø. Dette er en helt unik chance for at opleve den sidste resterende del af Vancouver's nu tabte oprindelige gamle landskab.

Get a REAL taste of the original forests of Vancouver with a guide who knows Stanley Park inside and out. You'd never guess what lies hidden just steps away from the main thoroughfares! An easy walk, with lots of stops to hear the history of 400 to 1000 year old giants from the original Vancouver forests, you come away marvelling at these ancient survivors and a real understanding of the challenges they faced to survive so long. The stories of Stanley Park and its inhabitants interweave facts about climate, meterology, biology, indigenous and western settlers and gives you a true appreciation for this marvellous park and the amazing resiliency of its precious forest in the face of both mankind and nature.
So glad I booked this tour! A great mini escape from civilization while staying in the city. Our guide Colin's passion for trees and conservation shone through his extensive knowledge of old and new growth areas in Stanley Park. It was a pleasure catching a small glimpse into the world of ancient trees in beautiful BC.
My partner and I went on the Ancient Trees Walking Tour on June 8. It was the last day of a two-week trip to the Pacific Northwest; we'd already had lots of amazing adventures, but I have to say this was one of the highlights of our travels. Colin is so knowledgeable and incredibly engaging. We both learned so much, were awestruck by the beauty of the areas Colin took us too (right there in Vancouver!), and it was quite moving to stand beside trees that towered over us and had been there for 1000 years. The time flew and we would have happily listened to Colin for another three hours. His work in the world, to bring attention to and save the last ancient trees on earth, is inspiring. A gem of a tour - HIGHLY recommend! ... Thank you, Colin, for a great experience and for being you!
Excellent tour with a very knowledgeable guide. We all were so impressed, even with the rainy setting. Dress appropriately and you will enjoy the lack of crowds if you end up with a rainy day.

Colin is so knowledgeable and his ancient Tree walk is one of the best tours I have ever taken. Highly recommend!
Awesome tour. You’ll see parts of the urban forest that 99% of tourists never see or know that is there. Colin is very knowledgeable & engaging.
Colin is such a wonderful human!! Take this tour! You will learn so much about trees and the ecosystem in Stanley Park. And.... enjoy a wonderful (easy walking) experience through a very quiet part of the rain forest.
