There is a reason why Langley has become one of the most popular destinations of the Fraser Valley. Just a short trip from the heart of Vancouver and you are welcomed by the diversity and year round fresh adventures that are delivered here. With a fertile valley for crops and vistas of bucolic beauty, Langley rewards locals and visitors with an abundance of activities that include cultural attractions, festivals, nature trails, wineries and farm tours. When was the last time you milked a cow, picked your own juicy berries, or stomped on the grapes?
The agri-tourism community opens their doors to the most natural experiences with the ever popular Circle Farm Tour. Designed as a self guided tour, the Langley Circle Farm Tour is a road map to escape from the often hectic life and explore the lush countryside. But there are other benefi ts to visiting that include learning about the value of our farms, supporting the farms, and how agriculture contributes to the local economies. Choose your own agriadventure. Start with what's in season, add something off the beaten path and fi nish with a new experience. Take an afternoon, or spend a day or two to explore - your options are endless.
Langley has also become an urban centre within the Fraser Valley and its agricultural roots are also supported by an abundance of unique shops and quaint shopping districts. You will fi nd treasures from the past to the present in shopping areas offering antique fi nds, specialty stores and boutiques. To compliment the shopping are the many restaurants who offer menus with the freshest of the season. Pair your meal with a wine from one of the fi ve local wineries and you have a true Langley dining experience.
Be sure to include time in your day to tour the vineyards and sample some of the award winning grape vintages and local fruit wines. There is nothing more relaxing that a picnic in a lush vineyard with a bottle of your new favorite wine accompanying a basket of local savory tastings.
And there is no need to rush back home. With so much to explore, your visit in Langley can be made even more enjoyable with an overnight stay. Choose from cozy B&B's or one of the many luxurious hotels, Langley's accommodation providers roll out the red carpet for you!
