Vancouver: The Dark Secrets of Stanley Park Tour

The experience

Discover the jaw-dropping beauty – and sinister stories – of Stanley Park.

Stanley Park. It’s almost 1,000 acres of pristine wilderness. Half a million trees including giants hundreds of years old. Eagles soar overhead, while salmon, seals and even the occasional whale swim in the surrounding waters. It’s the city of Vancouver’s greatest treasure.

But there’s more to this park than incredible scenery. It’s also been home to crime, riots, persecution, political intrigue, class warfare, logging, hunting, disease, military installations, remarkable public art, ecological catastrophes, secret construction mega-projects, poetry, scandal, and murder.

So take the Dark Secrets of Stanley Park Tour with Forbidden Vancouver Walking Tours — a whimsical two hours roaming the trails, seawall, sights, and sounds of one of the world’s great urban retreats.
