DESCRIPTION
Coquitlam River Park in British Columbia is a hidden gem for outdoor enthusiasts. It offers a blend of scenic beauty, recreational trails, and rich biodiversity. The park is a cherished green space that provides an escape from urban life while remaining easily accessible to residents and visitors. Whether you're looking for a leisurely walk along the river, a peaceful picnic, or a more adventurous hiking experience, Coquitlam River Park & Trails offers something for everyone.
The park's trails wind along the Coquitlam River, offering stunning views of the water, lush forests, and the occasional wildlife sighting. From seasonal salmon runs to towering evergreens, this park is an ecological haven that connects the community to nature.
The Coquitlam River has been a vital part of the region’s history for centuries. Indigenous peoples, including the Kwikwetlem First Nation, have long relied on the river as a source of sustenance and cultural significance. The name “Kwikwetlem” translates to “red fish up the river,” referring to the annual salmon runs that continue to this day. As the city of Coquitlam expanded, preserving the natural beauty of the river became a priority.
We will spend time on the trail and also in the off-leash area.
