Rocky Point Park and Shoreline Trail
We’ve covered Rocky Point before, both as a great family-friendly park as well as one of our go-to paddling spots. We came back to enjoy some fall foliage and finish the Shoreline Trail. We tackled the Shoreline Trail, aiming at the finish line at Old Orchard Park. It’s an easy 5.8km out-and-back trail, as detailed…

Fraser River Park
After visiting Deering Island Park, we became more interested in parks along the Fraser River. For one, the view is beautiful, and we heard that there are boardwalks in some of these parks which is the perfect trail for our cyclist toddler. Our good friends David and Rofie brought us to Fraser River Park earlier…

Vanier Park
We wouldn’t have made a trip here if it wasn’t for Junior’s absolute love for “mountain biking” these days. He absolutely loves the sport, and kept on asking us if we can bring him to Whistler to mountain bike. We definitely will fulfill his bike dreams, but first he needs to up his skills and…

Deering Island Park and Fraser River Trail
Did you know there’s an island in the Dunbar/Southlands neighbourhood in Vancouver, that’s so small it only has 1 street with 2 rows of houses? And they still managed to squeeze in the tiniest park on the tip of this island. We did an early evening stroll here and was quite amazed with the beautiful…

Iona Beach Regional Park
As it’s currently the long weekend before school starts, we decided to hike more trails but also to stay local and avoid the crowds. Junior once again wanted to go on his bike and I wanted to do some jogging, so we ended up on Iona Beach Park. Trail Condition We took the Iona Jetty…

Kamloops Riverside Park
One of the wonderful things about exploring new places with a toddler is that they will make you find hidden gems you wouldn’t otherwise have given a second thought. Our road trip came to a pause when my toddler reeeaaalllly wanted to ride his bicycle. In the spur of the moment we randomly stumbled upon…
