Capilano Suspension Bridge Mobility Rentals

Visiting Capilano Suspension Bridge with Mobility Equipment

Capilano Suspension Bridge Park is one of Vancouver's most iconic attractions, drawing over a million visitors a year to its famous 137-metre suspension bridge, Cliffwalk, and Treetops Adventure. Before booking mobility equipment, it is important to know exactly what is and is not accessible at the park — so your group can plan the visit confidently.

What Is and Is Not Accessible

• The suspension bridge itself is not accessible by wheelchair, transport chair, or mobility scooter — it sways and has a grated surface.
• Treetops Adventure (the boardwalk through the forest canopy) is not accessible — the platforms and bridges involve steps and uneven surfaces.
• Cliffwalk has limited accessibility — some sections are manageable but others are not suitable for wheelchairs or scooters.
• The main visitor centre, gift shop, and café are fully accessible with level entry and wide doorways.
• The Totem Park area at the entrance is flat, paved, and fully accessible.
• The Story Centre historical displays are accessible and worth visiting.

Recommended Equipment

• Transport Chair — The most practical option. Light and compact for the accessible areas, and easy to fold while companions do the bridge and Treetops. The Totem Park and visitor centre area is well worth the trip even without the bridge walk.
• Standard Wheelchair — Useful for navigating the visitor centre grounds and for exploring the surrounding Capilano River area near the fish hatchery.

We recommend calling us before booking so we can help you choose the right equipment for your specific group's plans — we know the park well and can give you practical advice.

Delivery to North Vancouver

We deliver mobility equipment to hotels throughout North Vancouver, including the Lonsdale Quay area, the Canyon Court Hotel, and accommodations along the Capilano Road corridor. Same-day delivery is available Monday through Saturday for orders placed before noon. The park is a 10-minute drive from most North Vancouver accommodation, and the free Park Shuttle runs from several North Vancouver SeaBus and transit stops.

Tips for Visiting

• Book tickets in advance online — the park has timed entry and can sell out on summer weekends.
• If a member of your group cannot do the bridge, the Totem Park, visitor centre, and café make for a comfortable and genuinely interesting visit. There is excellent accessible seating with full views of the canyon below.
• The Capilano River Regional Park, adjacent to the bridge park, has a paved path along the river to the fish hatchery — flat and accessible, and free to enter.
• The free shuttle from Lonsdale Quay and downtown hotels makes parking unnecessary.
