Take a walk this winter!

The fresh, crisp winter air, sparkling holiday lights, and calmer streets are lovely at this time of year. We organized three Winter Festive Walks in different areas in Metro Vancouver: the Spirit Trail/Lonsdale Quay on the North Shore, Lafarge Lake in Coquitlam, and Mount Pleasant in Vancouver. TransLink kindly provided Compass Cards for participants when we used transit to get to our location, and we showed participants how to reload their cards for future use!

Surrey Walks Fleetwood and Crescent Park

Here we show you two of the remaining walks of the summer edition of Surrey Walks. Both routes and enclaves are the right options to go with family and little kids. It took us near to 1 hour to complete, but they are not longer than 3km.
