Parks & Nature

Jutting into Indian Arm where it meets the Burrard Inlet, and covering some 1,100ha/2,718ac, this forested mountain park has been a summer getaway destination since the 1920s when boats used to bring day trippers from Vancouver's Coal Harbour to picnic, swim, hike for an hour or a full day, and fish. Today this family park is as popular as ever with 22km/13.7mi of walking trails and 9.5km/6mi of cycling paths. White Pine Beach at Sasamat Lake is a hot spot for swimmers as much for its safe, warm waters and for its long stretches of sand. There's a wharf for crabbing, fishing or scuba diving. The Belcarra picnic area, White Pine Beach and park washrooms are all wheelchair accessible.

Located along Sunnyside Road just north-east of Belcarra in neighbouring Anmore, Buntzen Lake sits among the forested slopes of the Coast Mountains. Created from a dam reservoir which provided Vancouver's first hydroelectric power, this picturesque 4.8km/3mi long reservoir is also a popular recreation area. Buntzen Lake offers a small boat and canoe launch (rentals are available), hiking, mountain biking, equestrian and nature trails. The summer crowds can be a bit daunting; be sure to arrive before 10am to secure a parking spot or the walk can be a long one, especially for youngsters.

Covering 126ha/311ac, this mostly undeveloped park comprises original ecosystems of forest uplands and wetlands that are rich with wildlife such as the Northwestern salamander and red-legged frogs. These north shore wetlands are also significant for the diversity of plant species – a total of 99 species have been inventoried so far and include the Arctic starflower, Swamp laurel, Labrador tea and Round-leaved sundew plants. Although it has an extensive trail system for hikers and mountain bikers, most are unmarked and there is concern that over-use will jeopardize the largesse of fauna and flora. Some are old logging roadbeds lead to the remnants of long-abandoned campsites.

A recent $3 million renovation has created a beautiful community park, complete with a children's spray park, outdoor pool and playground as well as a band shell that in summer hosts a series of weekly concerts. The large grass area is a terrific spot to find artists at their easels, throw a Frisbee and picnic. The park includes a boat launch ramp, a recreational pier and skateboard park. This is where the very popular Shoreline Park Trail begins

Translated from the Spanish as 'Ten Views' the switchback trail is aptly named for the ten spectacular views it provides along the hike. Although it's an uphill, fairly well groomed ascent to the first viewpoint, persevere to the top and the reward is majestic. At 560m/1,837ft, the trail meanders along the ridge with vistas of Vancouver Island, Deep Cove, the North Shore mountains and Indian Arm. Depending on how many short-trail digressions are taken to various viewpoints, allow up to 6 hrs for the round trip.
