Entrance/Parking for Everett Crowley Park Trails — Attraction in Vancouver

Parking gets full easily on weekends. Park is great. Big enough to have a good workout and give the pups a good workout as well. The inner circumference trail is leash-free and is approximately 2 km long. If you go there, plan on seeing some to lots of doggies.if you are not comfortable with dogs, you can ealk the outer perimeter trail system wich requires dog owners keep their pets on leash.that trail is approximately 3.6km long. The park can be hot on a sunny spring or summer day. There are several areas with good shade and the inner trail system offers watering stations for the canines. This water is brought to the parking entrance arena ferried to te watering stations by park users so, if you want to contribute and there are water-filled jugs aren't the entrance, feel free to puck one or more up and deliver them to a station. During winter the watering seating are not usually kept filled. During the rainy fall/winter/spring season, there is as huge puddle near the parking entrance which dogs love getting into so, beware. On the outer trail, you will find several exits around the whole park. There is a pond and a creek in te North-East side of the park. The creek runs south along the east side, beside the outer trail. There are nice views of Richmond and Surrey to be enjoyed from benches, dispersed along the South side of the park. Over the last few years. There has been a big movement to beautify the park (big events happen usually on Earth Day)while making it more dog-friendly. There have also been lots of downed trees over recent years because of the wind storms we've been having. The city usually cleans up the trails within a couple of days though so don't be discouraged. I do not recommend walking in the park on extremely windy days. On occasion, there are large film productions in the park which sometimes claim part of the leash-free areas but it is interesting to see the sets ehich arebusually prepped several days in are largedvance are largedvance are left intact for a couple of days after filming.

There is some wildlife in the park (personally seen Rabbits, Squirrels, Bald Eagles and Coyotes.) Toy and small-sized dog-owners beware.

In short, this park has alot to offer; lots of big, old trees with lots of young ones, doggie play areas and leashed-pet or leash-free trails for those looking to exercise their own bodies or those...

Pleasant place for a walk, especially with a canine companion. Not as good for nature, however, as large parts are heavily infested with invasive plants—-Himalayan blackberry, holly, English Ivy, etc. You can see that a lot of effort is being put into removing the invasives and planting native species. Should be much nicer in 5...

For a change of scenery we visited this park. We walked around the outer perimeter path which is under construction in some areas but still passable. About 3 km. Interesting how the trail passes right behind some homes. Very nice views along the South side with well placed benches. Great for people and their 4...
