Winter Activities

Eagle Watching & Floats – Squamish is one of the most prominent bald eagle wintering grounds in North America. In the winter, thousands of eagles flock to Squamish. You can spot them from your cabin along the river, or at the nearby Eagle Run at Brackendale Provincial Park. Squamish Rafting also offers an Eagle Float where you can get up close along the river without disturbing these beautiful birds and other local wildlife.
