Walk around the beach or to the pier and watch the sunset or have a barbecue with family at the family spot. Ample parking and very clean bathrooms.

This seaside park in Crescent Beach was the perfect spot to walk on a windy fall day. From the park…read moreproper, we first let the dog run off a little steam in the big off-leash enclosure. It was dry, because South Surrey and White Rock never seems to get as much rain as Vancouver and North Vancouver. From there we walked down the beachside trail with whitecaps and windsurfers on one side, and gorgeous beachside cottages on the other. I was glad to be wearing a good windbreaker because a mighty wind blows in off Boundary Bay. This is a popular beach area in the summer, but it's a good place for a flat, easy walk in the winter, too. You can go quite a ways along the trail, tracing the shoreline, or just a quick and out and back before dark.

Posting a bit of an update to address a few complaints:…read more 1. There is now a lovely handicap accessible porta potty complete with pave stone pathway immediately to the right of the entry for the large dog area. 2. Yes, a few folks do sit in their vehicles while their dog is in the park. At least a couple of these people have health issues and cannot be with their dogs the entire time. We are a small community. We look out for each other. Please be understanding that sometimes there is more to the story than what you see. 3. I see more tourists not pick up after their dogs than residents. And let's face it, sometimes it's easy to be distracted speaking with friends, playing with other dogs, or engaging with visitors. If you find yourself at the park during a lull, there are several scoopers available. Grab a scooper, take a walk, and log some karma points. The smaller scooper is easier to dump into the bagged trashcans than the larger one (which requires a bit more talent). Or if you see a nearby singular poop that got missed, pick it up with a poop bag. We have a fantastic resource here. Cherish it. Take care of it, even if you are just visiting, And remember, with a little TLC m maybe we can hold onto this little doggie paradise for a long time.

Dogwood Dog Park is one of my top favourites for off-leash dog parks…read more This dog park has a huge parking lot for plenty of room for your car and your doggo. There is an optional smaller dog area that is fenced in if your pupper needs a smaller area to play. Otherwise there is a huge grassy to play and a small water area under a foot bridge. But the highlight for this park is the forested area with varying paths lined with tall trees and lush grounds. Such beautiful forested paths to walk with your dog off-leash - it really feels like you're taken somewhere out of city being within the trees. A very easy off-leash park to get to for a quick getsway with your furry friend. A majority of the time we have meet friendly dogs and owners. Doggy poop bags and a garbage can are present.

As parks go, this is pretty disappointing. The write-up we…read morefound before going said to expect to see beavers, birds and lots of other wildlife. No such luck - we saw a butterfly, a couple birds, a beetle and that's about it. That said, this is a nice path for walking and we appreciate that for the most part, it's not shared with cyclists. Beware if you go on a hot day that there is very little protection from the sun. Dress in layers and definitely bring a hat and sunglasses as on the day we visited last summer we absolutely roasted and then melted in the heat! Plenty of parking available and it's also nice that it's not too far out of the way.

Mundy Park is pretty big. 400 acres of coastal rainforest and is the biggest park in Coquitlam. We…read morecame in from Mariner/Chilko where there is only one parking lot. It was quite full on a Saturday afternoon but we managed to get a spot. The other side has more parking lots as that's where more activities are - swimming pool, disc golf course, lacrosse box, and sports field. We were closer to Lost Lake, so we started our walk from there. I liked how there were trail markers along the way, with maps at major intersections so you could find your location. We did the interlaken trail from Lost Lake to Mundy Lake, followed by the lakeside loop around Mundy Lake. Then we did part of the Perimeter trail back to Lost Lake and out of the park. The map looks big and quite daunting to walk. But it is a pretty easy walk but mostly flat ground. I love the trees and fall foliage. I learn there is a big leaf maple tree and the leaves are huge. Bears live in the park and we didn't see any. We also didn't see any painted turtles, which live in Lost Lake area. There are lots of fungi and mushrooms growing on the tree trunks. The off leash dof trail is also nearer the Lost Lake entrance. Maybe that's why we saw more people with dogs parked there. This is my new favorite park to walk. The longest trail is the Perimeter trail at 4km round trip. The others are 1 km to 1.5 km.

Park visitors can enjoy a nice recreation experience here because it offers something fun for all ages -- nice trails, baseball diamond, dog off-leash, lacrosse box, newly renovated outdoor pool, kid's play area, off-road cycling and even a nine hole disc golf course, etc. Also, I appreciate this park because there is a CC Market Concessions, opened during the summer season, conveniently open from 10am to 6pm daily. I like hassle free picnic when one can buy foods like hot dogs, wraps, chips, ice cream and drinks at the park when hungry. Parks with food options is nice for folks like me who wants to stay in this park longer and didn't pack any picnic foods. Huge parking lot is available for free but parking spots could be challenging on weekends and busy event days so do budget time accordingly for parking.

My kid and I were not looking for a park when we stumbled upon this area. We wanted to go for lunch at one of the cute cafe/restaurants and we were just driving around the area, looking for a place to park. And what luck, that we drove down Church, to this park! There are two large parking lots here, flanking Church Street. Free parking, I might add. Ample spots for lots of cars. This is prime parking, and we will always now come here to park when we visit Fort Langley. We explored the park a bit before heading to Mavis Street and Glover Street (the other main road). And we were so impressed. They have viewing areas on the Fraser River, and picnic areas, and a boat launch close by. The city's website says there are bathroom facilities here, too, but I didn't see them. What I did see is a gorgeous trail on wooden boardwalks running parallel to the river, under a canopy of trees. (The city map says this trail is called the Trans Canada Trail). It is so pristine here, and immaculately clean, and peaceful. So peaceful.
