Welcome
to Canadian Snapshots on Canadian
Geographic Online.
Join us as we travel the country seeking out regions that are
familiar to some and little-known to others. We're zooming in
on points along the Trans Canada
Trail, a national path that will soon stretch from coast
to coast to coast.
Avalon Peninsula
It's the end of the line for the TransCanada Highway but with it's sheer seaside cliffs and bird colonies of biblical proportions,
it is the start of a great Atlantic adventure
Cape Breton
Visit the island that, with breathtaking landforms and distinctive Celtic culture, is in a world of its own
Cypress Hills
The Cree called the region "beautiful highlands"; European explorers named it "a perfect oasis in the desert." This
lush and rolling landscape shows you the diversity of the prairies
Northern Ontario
You'll find an embarassment of riches in Northern Ontario - an endless landscape of jagged rock cuts, sparkling lakes and ancient trees
Okanagan
This glacier-scoured mountain valley is an Edenesque getaway steeped in human and natural history
