Minnekhada
Minnekhada was once the hunting lodge of Eric Hamber, Lieutenant Governor of BC in the early 1900s and is now a popular park. Follow The Great Trail along the Coquitlam River and join the Poco Trail through Port Coquitlam to the Pitt River dyke. Enjoy snow-dusted mountain views in winter and look for bears in the blueberry fields in summer.

Framed by the mountains in the north and circling blueberry fields, this is one of my favourite places to ride and walk. There’s some fun singletrack and rocky sections on this one so take your mountain bike.
