Getting Here

4080 Cedar Drive, Port Coquitlam, BC

🚇 Transit

This spot is a classic 'last mile' challenge for transit users. Take the SkyTrain's Millennium Line to a central Coquitlam station, then catch a connecting bus—just be prepared for a bit of a walk from the nearest stop to the trailhead.

🚗 Parking

There's a dedicated parking lot at the main entrance on Cedar Drive, but it's small and fills up exceptionally fast on sunny weekends. Arrive early or be prepared to hunt for legal shoulder parking nearby.
