The Green Necklace

The Green Necklace connects North Vancouver city parks in a continuous loop of safe and separated greenways. The route was originally conceived in 1907 and laid out in North Vancouver City’s original town plan. Much of the route has been enhanced with art and heritage signs. It’s an easy bike ride, walk, or run.

The Drive

Tour East Van and visit The Drive on the Adanac Bikeway. There are breweries to visit, murals to see, and restaurants and shops on Commercial Drive. Add on a loop through Strathcona and Chinatown. At the end of the day you’ll see a stream of crows in the sky as they fly home at night.

Barnston Island + Surrey Bend

Here’s an easy ride that has a bonus of a ferry ride! It’s really a barge pushed by a tugboat, so that makes it all the better. Start at Surrey Bend Park and explore the trails, then bike onto the ferry and around Barnston Island. The road is flat and paved, there are views of the river and farms, and it’s especially fun in the fall during cranberry harvest. Bring a picnic!
