Tourism  
Canada offers outdoor experiences like nowhere else on earth - pure, rugged, and unspoiled. From mountains to coastlines, glaciers to secluded forests and lakes, there's so much to see and do that you could set out on an adventure all year round.

Canada is home to one of the world's largest networks of national parks and protected areas. Whether you're on the high Arctic, Pacific or Atlantic coasts, crossing the Canadian Shield, traveling the Great Lakes, or riding the prairie foothills or mountains, you'll experience extraordinary nature and true wilderness.

Canoe lakes and rivers, hike mountains and prairies, or watch polar bears in their natural habitat. Stay at a remote ski-lodge, sleep under the stars at a full service campsite, or relax at a luxurious resort. No matter what you choose you'll wake up to another day of adventure.
