Vedder River Trails

This scenic riverside trail is easy for beginners and great for walking and running, too. The route stretches from Vedder Crossing to the Vedder Canal. There is parking at both ends, entry points along the trail and choices if you want to meander off the main trail. Add on the trail to the Great Blue Heron Reserve — explore nature trails, an interpretive center, and best of all a heron colony! Loop the Vedder, or follow The Great Trail all the way to Abbotsford.

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.
