staggering beauty, Canada is an outstanding travel destination. Canada really is nature’s playground, with its snowcapped peaks, unspoiled forests, labyrinthine coastline and isolated islands.
Canada will be bursting with celebration for its 150th birthday, which is on 1 July 2017. The landmark anniversary will also see visitors enjoying free entry to National Parks across the country throughout the year. Parks Canada was a world first when it was established in 1911 and today the system looks after more than 200 National Parks, marine conservation areas and historic sites in every province and territory. Also targeted to be completed in time for the celebration are the final sections of the Trans Canada Trail, the world’s longest network of recreational trails.
