There are 96 parks within North
Vancouver City and District and
all boast a variety of attractions,
with the major parks featuring
golfing, skiing and hiking.

The system of parks and hiking
trails in North Vancouver will
leave you breathless. For instance,
a 25-mile walk on the Baden
Powell Trail from Deep Cove to
Horsheshoe Buy is truly something
to ‘write home about’’. But, take
heart and wind, you don’t have to
do it at one, time. You. can do it in
sections.

At Lynn Canyon Park, you can
combine a walk. in the wilderness

_ with an aerial view on a suspension

bridge of Lynn Creek which is 272

“feet below. Also admission is free

to the park's Ecology Centre which
shows the effects of ecology on

different life forms, using film and

exhibits on display.
