Let’s go for a one-way walk/hike on the BC Parkway starting from Edmonds skytrain station. We will pass through Burnaby and New Westminster, including multiple parks, trails, greenways, waterfronts views, city streets, Glenbrook Ravine , and the B.C. 😱penitentiary! (They use ice cream to lure you in😀🍦😂!)
A short walk from the B.C. penitentiary will bring us to Sapperton station for our return home via skytrain. Please be sure to read the bold printed section below!!
The following statistics are all approximate: distance 13 km; Elevation gain 120 m; total time including lunch should be between 4 to 4 1/2 hours. This would mean the latest we should finish with most likely be 3 PM depending how long we spend in each spot.
**\*\*\*As we will be using the skytrain to start and finish this event, it is absolutely necessary that everybody have a valid compass card in their possession. To go back on the skytrain, we are going to use Sapperton station however we will not be going into the station in the conventional way. There is a legal back door you can get in, but you have to have, a compass card that is valid before you try to get back in as there is no way to purchase tickets on the outside of this entrance!!\*\*\***
As always, please dress appropriately for the weather that day. If the weather is going to be wet, it could be rescheduled so please recheck with the site for any changes. Also please don’t forget your lunch/snacks and water! RSV time
Please try and arrive before 10:15 AM so we can start on time! Look forward to seeing you!! open 32
