Cultural Journey

The Self-Guided Cultural Journey Route through the Squamish and Lil’wat First Nations

The Sea-to-Sky Corridor is a route stretching north from Vancouver through Whistler, renowned world wide for its breathtaking ocean views and magnificent mountain ranges. The Corridor is much more than spectacular scenery — it is also a Cultural Journey.
Going northbound from Vancouver, stop at kiosks 1 to 5 on your way up to Whistler — they are all on the east side of the highway.
Southbound from Whistler back to Vancouver, stop at kiosks 6 and 7, which are both on the west side of the highway.
Enjoy Viewpoint signage on both sides of the highway at easily accessible pullouts. Also, along the way, enjoy the spectacular scenic features marked on the map.
