Overview

Canada, West

These three western Canadian provinces all have scenery that is typical of Canadian nature: big green wide open spaces, forests, mountains, lakes, as well as coasts. From the British aspects of Victoria to the Chinese district of Vancouver, via the festivals that enliven Saskatchewan in the summer, always something to keep the citizens delighted. The best time to go would be once a season! Every season brings a different aspect of this part of Canada alive.

pros

  •  The three Canadian provinces in question are not lacking in activities! Both in winter and in summer, there is a range of sports, cultural sites, festivals; each province has its own programme.
  •  The immense and varied landscape guarantees a change of scene: deserts, forests, lakes. Magnificent colours and awe-inspiring spaces.

cons

  •  Although there are numerous camp sites, the west of Canada is still quite an expensive destination.
  •  This immense and wild land, far away from Europe, is not worth visiting for less than two or three weeks.

Country Guide

Our Editorial team's advice

The use of arms for hunting is only authorised from 18 years of age in Canada.
In order to fish in the national parks, you need fishing authorisation, as well as a permit. Fishing shops and regional tourist offices can provide you with it or advise you.
Like the United States, Canada is more of a non-smoking country. There are smoking and non-smoking rooms in the restaurants, however, most of the bed and breakfast places and gîtes are non-smoking.
