When the signs are up warning people there are bears in the forest do not go there, nice and varied paths you can actually get lost in if you do not follow the signs, one of the lakes has turtles to watch

Here is a map of the 25 km. trail. - great for walking or bike riding
Reviewed By Hana K - Port Moody
This is a wonderful walking/cycling trail, connects to many other trails, so the trip can be as long as you like it, with many convenient places to park. Good surface even when it rains - and being in BC's Lower Mainland, in "normal" winter, biking is fine 12 months of the year!

I had visited Vancouver almost 20 times but eastward I had never ventured beyond Burnaby. This time I visited a friend living in Coquitlam, not by taking the Transcanada freeway but by the Barnet Highway (7A) along the shoreline, and hitting Port Moody's Rocky Point Park before Coquitlam. This is still a saltwater shoreline park where we had fish n chips and relaxed with overlooking the inlet's quaint houses on the opposite side.

I love walking around the lake, it's beautiful, peaceful, love the Fountain in the center. The Christmas lighting display is fabulous, I have enjoyed wonderful afternoons there with entertainment.

Beautiful beach and waters await you at white pine beach. Great day trip for families couples or singles to enjoy the relatively warm water sandy beach and scenic views. Not far from the centre if port moody and very accessible. Plenty of parking there but wise to get there early as parking does fill up. Concession stand to satisfy your hunger and thirst. Children will love the sandy beach to build sand Castles. Great way to spend a sunny day.

Good for a dog on leash walk of about 1.2 km on a bark mulch path around the lake. Many spots to rest in shade and/or on many memorial benches and picnic tables. Never crowded. Watch but please DO NOT FEED the geese and ducks. Small kids enjoy the neat playground there while old codgers like me enjoy seeing the young families.

This used to be a fully operational farm that operated by the Forensic Facility on site. There are many areas to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. There are lots of opportunities to see local wildlife including deer, bear, coyotes and lots of waterfowl.

As with the other microbreweries in Port Moody, they only tend to cater to those who like bitter, sour or very hoppy tasting beer...It is a shame, as it alienates the rest of us, who don't like those tastes at all...They used to have really good beer when they opened up, but the quality is going down the hoppy and bitter slope I am afraid...

Visited this park last Sunday. Perfect sunny fall weather, splendid fall landscapes and great reflections on the pond.
Highly recommend bringing a map for the park. It's large! Must say that the signage is good within the trail system. Lots of sign posts to guide the way. The paths are easy to follow but some are quite steep with tricky root systems. Just be careful!
Busy on a sunny Sunday morning. Highly recommend arriving before noon. When we left, the parking lots were full and patrons were parking on the road. A bit of a hazard.
Attempted to visit the Lodge but it was closed until 1pm. Maybe next time. Get out and enjooy Super Natural BC!
