BMUT to Gastown

The Evergreen Skytrain has opened lots of possibilities for one way rides. Starting from Lougheed Station, this route follows the Burnaby Mountain Urban Trail then Burnaby Scenic trail around Capitol Hill, continues on Portside Greenway along Burrard Inlet, and ends in Gastown for lunch! Return via Skytrain or connect to other rides.

West Van Exploring

The ride starts at Ambleside Park and winds through the hills and roads of West Vancouver. It’s a winding meander of West Van’s shoreline through Caulfield Park, Lighthouse Park, Whytecliff Park, and Horseshoe Bay. You’ll ride high above the cove on the Seaview trail ― an old railway. It’s a rollicking ride ... part on trails, shared roads, and through neighbourhoods. Give it a try ― you just might think you are on the Amalfi coast!

Seymour Valley

Ride in the Seymour Lower Conservation Reserve on a car-free paved multi-use trail rolling through the forest to the Seymour Dam. A great ride on a hot summer’s day under the canopy of hundred-year-old trees. Bring a picnic and enjoy the lake view from the observation point, explore the Bear Creek Bridge, peek at the fish hatchery, then return via same trail or try the hilly adventurous Spur 4 route on the east side of Seymour River.

Fort to Fort Trail

Sometimes there’s the perfect ride — this is one of my favourites — the river and valley views are spectacular. The route follows the The Great Trail through farm fields along the Fraser River to Fort Langley. For a shorter ride start at Derby Reach Park, explore the quaint town of Fort Langley and enjoy lunch or an ice-cream! Add on a visit to Brae Island Park or visit the 1827 Historic Fort.

Shoreline Trail

If you build it, they will come! Port Moody’s Shoreline Trail bike path has been a success since the day it opened. Families come from all over to cycle this easy and fun route on a separated paved bike path around the end of Burrard Inlet. There are two paths - one for walking and one for bikes. The path is well marked with two-way directions. There’s lots to see – birds and wildlife, a fish hatchery, two parks, playgrounds, and there are many restaurants nearby.

Steveston South Dyke Trail

A favourite and easy ride — from art sculptures to boats, an old fishing village with many shops and restaurants, three museums, a boardwalk, wildlife — this ride has it all.

Iona Jetty

Just north of the Vancouver Airport is an easy ride with a combo of dyke, road, and would you believe it — a 4km jetty into the ocean! You might see jets landing and taking off, and eagles, herons, and cormorants fishing. There are beaches, parks with picnic tables and it’s all flat!

Quay + Pier Park

Exciting things are happening down by the river! An easy and meandering route along New Westminster’s riverfront with a visit to the new Pier Park on the Fraser River. There’s lots to see and do on the waterfront ― working tugs, barges, and boom boats. Visit River Market, take a boat tour or paddlewheeler cruise up the Fraser, or visit Fraser River Discovery Centre for a great family day.

Canoe Pass (Brunswick Point)

For a quiet ride with the kids, try Brunswick Point in Ladner. There’s lots of bird watching along the shores - keep your eyes open for flocks of ducks, fishing herons, eagles, and migrating birds. A great ride for those who like cycling on dyke trails amidst wildflowers and looking west over the straight of Georgia.

South Langley Trail

This gem of a ride winds along the trails from Campbell Valley Park through forests and fields to Aldergrove Park and there are wineries to visit along the way. The ride can be done as an out and back, a 40km trail and road loop, or consider a two-car shuttle…all enjoyable!
