Directions

This is Vancouver's quiet answer to Stanley Park: 750-plus hectares of second-growth coastal forest with roughly 73 km of soft, mostly flat trails wrapping UBC. Locals come here to run, walk dogs off-leash, and disappear into the trees without the tourist crush, and you can link trails down to Spanish Banks and Wreck Beach. The one honest caveat is that it's a maze of near-identical junctions, so download a trail map or you'll wander longer than planned.
