Constructed in 1917 to shield the city from erosion, Vancouver’s Seawall Promenade now serves as a scenic pathway along the waterfront of Stanley Park. Stretching for 5.5 miles (9 kilometers), the stone wall offers a smooth, continuous route for walkers, runners, and bikers. As you traverse the promenade, the harbor, sea, and forest come into view, creating a serene backdrop for both leisurely strolls and more vigorous activities. The Seawall’s blend of natural beauty and urban convenience makes it a popular spot for locals and visitors alike.
