Plus the Right Tires to Keep You Safe Along the Way
Canada is full of open roads, fresh air, and unforgettable destinations—perfect for a family road trip this summer. But before you take off, it’s smart to make sure your tires are up for the drive. Whether you’re headed to the mountains or the coast, the right tires give you peace of mind.
Here are four family-friendly Canadian road trip ideas and the best Sailun tires to help you get there.
1. Vancouver to Tofino (BC)
This west coast drive takes you from the city to the sea, through ferry rides, forests, and winding roads. It’s great for families who love nature and want to unplug.
Tire Tip: You’ll need a tire with grip and comfort for mixed conditions. Don’t forget to check your tire pressure before boarding the ferry—pressure changes with temperature.
Recommended Tire: Sailun Terramax HT2 — perfect for SUVs and light trucks, with a smooth ride and strong wet traction.
2. Muskoka Lakes Region (Ontario)
Just a couple hours from Toronto, Muskoka is classic cottage country—canoeing, swimming, and s’mores. Ideal for young families or quick weekend escapes.
Tire Tip: Make sure your tires are rotated and wear is even. Gravel and backroads can take a toll on your tread.
Recommended Tire: Sailun Atrezzo SH408 — a reliable summer tire with enhanced control on both dry and wet roads.
3. Icefields Parkway (Alberta)
Between Banff and Jasper, this drive offers glaciers, wildlife, and postcard views. Great for older kids who appreciate the outdoors and long stretches of highway.

Recommended Tire: Sailun Atrezzo TCON — developed for SUV vehicles delivering a quiet, confident driving experience.
4. Cabot Trail (Nova Scotia)
This route combines coastal views, local eats, and cultural stops. Plan for hiking, whale watching, and lots of photo ops.
Tire Tip: Coastal climates can be unpredictable. Choose a tire that offers solid handling in changing weather.
Recommended Tire: Sailun Terramax AT2 — all-terrain confidence with comfort and control.
5. Riding Mountain National Park (Manitoba)
Riding Mountain National Park is a hidden gem in Manitoba, offering a mix of forest trails, scenic lakes, and wildlife sightings. Families can hike, bike, or relax by Clear Lake, making it a perfect weekend escape just a few hours from Winnipeg.
Tire Tip: On trips that blend city and rural driving, a tire that balances comfort, durability, and light-duty hauling is key—especially if you’re packing for a full weekend.
Tire Recommendation: Sailun Atrezzo SVA2 – a versatile all-season tire offering a quiet ride, solid wet traction, and reliable performance for summer road trips across mixed terrain.
