Vancouver Itinerary: 48 Hours of Luxury and Culture

Vancouver is a city that I’ve visited many times throughout the years and I continue to go back for its outdoorsy vibe, rich blend of cultures, amazing food, and luxurious accommodations. My most recent trip to the city was a special one, as I had the opportunity to experience Vancouver through a fantastic trip that highlighted its local culture, sustainability initiatives, and high-end hospitality.

Myra Canyon Trail – An Amazing Adventure

As I cycled across the first wooden trestle bridge, I gazed out at the canyon and I was blown away. It was one of the most amazing views I have ever seen on two wheels. This scenic section of the historic Kettle Valley Railway (KVR) Trail runs through a dramatic canyon and it takes cyclists and hikers through two tunnels and across 18 trestle bridges. This former rail line was built through the canyon between 1912 and 1914 and was used as an active railway line for many years. When it was discontinued as a railway line, local volunteers converted it into …
