As two of Vancouver’s oldest neighbourhoods, Hastings–Sunrise and Grandview-Woodland offer a vibrant mix of commercial, industrial, recreational and residential spaces. The northern ends of both neighbourhoods meet the shores of the Burrard Inlet and provide you with a stunning backdrop of mountains and ocean views. The juxtaposition of industrial structures against the majesty of these mountains makes this neighbourhood feel unique. Nestled between the warehouses and factories are a number of hidden breweries, shops, artist studios, parks and eateries. Best explored by bike, start your day off with a pre adventure breakfast and end it with a beer on the beach and soak up the sky as it turns from blue to pink to black behind the North Shore mountain ranges.
This bike lane section is unique in that it offers awesome contrasting views of the industrial port district against BC’s beautiful North Shore mountain ranges and the Burrard Inlet. There’s a little viewpoint/rest area halfway through where you can admire the view or watch the freight trains below.
