North Vancouver is a city in British Columbia located on the north side of Burrard Inlet across from downtown Vancouver. It forms part of the Metro Vancouver region and is closely connected to the wider metropolitan area through bridges, transit routes and waterfront transport.
The city is shaped by a combination of urban development, harbour activity and dramatic natural surroundings. Residential neighbourhoods, commercial streets and civic spaces are set against a backdrop of forested slopes and nearby mountains, giving North Vancouver a distinct identity within the region. Access to outdoor recreation is one of its defining features, with trails, parks and mountain routes close to urban areas.
North Vancouver today combines waterfront industry, established neighbourhoods and a strong outdoor lifestyle within one of British Columbia’s most visually striking urban settings.
