Description

Added by Tara Stamnes

A quiet, breezy, oceanside walk.

One of Surrey's hidden gems, head down to this short trail down a set of stairs that will take you to an uninhabited beach.

The zig zagged steps take you down to the Birlington Rail Lines and you can walk along a trail to an opening under the tracks. Head to the beach from here where you will likely see Blue Herons and Harbour Seals catching fish or sunbathing on the rocks.

Though the number of stairs may seem intimidating, this path is easy and a perfect walk for after work or an early morning jaunt.

Catch a Sunset at Crescent Beach

Crescent beach is a great place to end your day, by taking some sunset pictures. It often lights up the sky and really pops with colour. It is best to park at the main parking lot near the pier and start from there. The beach walk from the pier to the end is just over a kilometre, so is very short and sweet.To the right of the pier is my favourite spot to shoot the sunset and the boat house is ...

Hike the Elgin Heritage Park Nature Trail

Head over to this magical little park by the water. The forested area between the 2 entrances to the park has many large trees often used by eagles and hawks to survey the surrounding area for prey. The habitat functions of the marsh significantly contribute to the ecological value of the lower Nicomekl River. The area supports fish and other wildlife and is used for nesting by small perching b...

The Brown's planted dozens of different tree species throughout the property, cr...

Hiking through Burns Bog Delta Nature Reserve

As you begin your journey into Burns Bog Delta Nature Reserve from the parking lot and small trail coming off of Westview Drive, notice the gravel trail ahead of you and across the train tracks that will take you into the bog itself and take a left. After spending a few minutes on the straight trail running along the train tracks, the gravel turns to dirt as you enter the reserve. On your right...

Take a Sunset Ride on the Tsawwassen-Swartz Bay Ferry

You can walk on or take your car on the ferry. Either way gets you to the same views. Make sure you sit on the right side of the boat (and it sometimes turns around once leaving the dock). Set up on the upper deck, and prepare yourself for an unbelievable show. Make sure you check out the onboard Tripple O's Restaurant for some tasty burgers and fries!

Take a Stroll through Hovander Homestead Park

Driving up to the park entrance: take a right to drive towards the barnyards, playgrounds, covered picnic areas, historic house and community gardens, and access to the Snoqualmie River. Or, drive straight and park outside of the fragrance gardens and historic house/ museum, and take a walk to access the observation tower, wetlands boardwalk, Tennant Lake, and other trails. Both historic house...
