Visited here years ago as a tourist. The trails were well-kept and scenic. The park makes for a quiet escape from the otherwise bustling atmosphere of Vancouver.

This is a great place for a walk through clean and tidy trails. It's a very easy walk, especially suitable for kids and seniors. There are bird feeders near the gift shop. You can commonly see hummingbirds there too!

Also nice to not worry about stepping in any dog waste or seeing the random bags of dog doo everywhere, as most people jus...
