  Hell's Gate Air
    Tram

Who can resist visiting a place with a name like "Hell's Gate"? At peak spring levels, an astounding 757 million l (200 million gal) of water per minute rush through this 35-m (110-ft) gorge - the narrowest point of the Fraser River. This volume is a whopping double that of Niagara Falls!

You can enjoy an up-close look via the aerial cable tramway, which takes enthralled visitors for a 152-m (500-ft) descent to river level. Andrenaline junkies are in luck, too. They can traverse the suspension bridge to get a firsthand look at the surging water below.

Hell's Gate is located in the Fraser Canyon, about 45 minutes north of Hope on Highway 1.

Hope

  Othello Tunnels:

East of Chilliwack, near Hope. In the early 20th century, the Canadian Pacific Railway was determined to link the Kootenay Rockies region of BC to the coast by rail. Rather than bypass the Coquihalla Gorge -a 91-m (300-ft) chunk of solid granite- the Othello Tunnels were constructed by slicing through five different rock faces almost entirely by hand.

Today, the tunnels are recognized as a spectacular feat of engineering - and boasted to be the world's most expensive mile of railway track. The four main tunnels and two bridges offer visitors astounding views of the surrounding mountainside.

The Othello Tunnels are found in Coquihalla Canyon Provincial Park near Hope, two hours east of Vancouver via Highway 1 or 7.
