Cypress Mountain Quarry Lookout

It’s hard to beat the High View Lookout when it comes to seeing all — and we mean all — of Vancouver. The lookout, located just off the road up to Cypress Mountain Resort in West Vancouver, provides unbridled views that stretch out well beyond the city. After taking a good panoramic shot, head up to the mountain for some hiking in the summer, or skiing in the winter.

“Near the city, but higher up and darker. One of the best available at such a short drive.”
