EXPERIENCE SQUAMISH
Traditional territory of the Squamish Nation,
![]()
Squamish means “Mother of Wind” and is named after the peoples of the Coast Salish culture who live here today, and whose descendants have inhabited the region for millennia.
The area was first visited by Europeans when, in 1792, Captain George Vancouver and crew sailed up Howe Sound aboard the ship Discovery. Over the next century tens of thousands of traders and prospectors flocked to the port on their journey up to the Cariboo Gold Rush of 1858.
Squamish transitioned into a farming community in 1888 with the first non-native settlers. Forestry replaced the agrarian economy, and when a railway connecting Squamish to Vancouver was built in 1956 – followed by a road two years later – the community took steps towards welcoming the rest of the world. The Squamish Museum, the West Coast Railway Heritage Park and log books at the Adventure Centre detail much of this history.
Squamish celebrates being ‘Hard Wired For Adventure’! It is famous for its snow-capped peaks, lush rainforests, white-water rivers, ocean sound and the second largest granite monolith in the world—the Stawamus Chief. The incredible range of geological features—created from the interplay of volcanic activity and an ice age—attracts adventurers and sightseers year round.
Whether you’re seeking exciting activities, physical exertion, an adrenaline rush, or a simple connection with nature in a friendly, welcoming community, Squamish has it all.
