So, you'd like to canoe down spectacular rivers, hike through untrodden landscapes, see wolves, polar bears, and whales in the wild? Or watch ice hockey, football, and baseball with the locals? Then Canada is the place for you to visit!

We have an enormous little country: it is nearly as big as Europe yet it has a population of just 30 million people. From the whale-rich coast of Vancouver Island to the rugged shores of Newfoundland, there are many wide-open and varied areas to explore.

There are 60 HI hostels across the country and your HI membership will get you a discount at all of them. You can also use your HI membership to get a good deal on transportation on the bus, the train or with a small group tour.
