Dating in Canada, in the heart of the great outdoors

The Rockies and turquoise lakes

In the west, the Canadian Rockies line up snow-capped peaks and glacial valleys. In Banff National Park, Lake Louise mirrors the Victoria massif in its emerald water, while Moraine Lake, slightly more discreet, is one of the most photographed landscapes in the country. Renting a canoe, paddling gently and sharing a hot chocolate at the lakeside lodge: that is a date to remember for a lifetime, provided you dress for the climate.

Niagara Falls and the Bay of Fundy

In the east, Niagara Falls, between Lake Erie and Lake Ontario, impress with their power and the mist that rises from them. A boat ride at the foot of the cataract makes clear why newlyweds love this place. On the Atlantic coast, the Bay of Fundy, between New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, has the highest tides in the world: walking the exposed seabed at low tide means sharing a very singular setting.

Northern lights and the Great North

Further north still, the Yukon, Northwest Territories and Nunavut reveal tundra, boreal forests and, in winter, unforgettable northern lights. One night under the sky, well bundled up outside a cabin, is a travel memory of its own. On Lyad, French-speaking singles living in Canada share their getaway ideas; it is up to you to find someone to hit the road and breathe wider with.
