Walk in Richmond - Steveston - West Dyke

Walk 10 km or 5 km.

NOTE (if you are driving): Due to construction of the new rec centre, if the parking lot is full, turn east off No. 1 Road onto Chatham (which is like a laneway and leads directly to the tennis courts) where there is more parking.

Walkers will register (sign in) at the start point between 9:30 am and 9:55 am. The walk will start at 10:00 am sharp. Please be on time; we do not wait for latecomers.

Our walks are restricted to club members who have paid $15 for an annual membership. If you would like to join us on our walks and you haven’t paid yet, please send an email to [email protected] stating that you'd like to fill out a membership form. In the subject line of your email, write MEETUP.

Please note: Although the number of attendees indicated on this page may appear low, be assured that you will be walking with many club members who have not RSVP’d. We rarely have fewer than 15 participants at any of our walks.

Route Description:
Come Walk With Us! This walk is nearly exclusively on the dyke, going out and back, starting through the Village and along the boardwalk by the marina, then to Garry Point Park and up to Blundell Rd. We pass the very historic home of one of the original Steveston pioneers. The variety of birds that you will get to see while walking on the dykes is amazing. This is one of 11 walks in our “Explore Richmond” series.

Immediately following the walk, you may wish to join some of your fellow club members at the nearby lunch venue.

NOTE: Once you have RSVP’d, our Meetup site will always show your status as “Unpaid”. This is not a cause for concern. The $1.00 participation fee for the walk is paid at the start point and to save us some work, we will not be recording on Meetup that you have paid it.

If you have any questions, please post them here on Meetup or send an email to [email protected].
