Getting Here

3663 Park Rd, North Vancouver, BC V7J 3G3

🚇 Transit

Getting here by transit is a classic Vancouver two-step. From downtown, take the scenic SeaBus to Lonsdale Quay, then hop on a North Vancouver bus heading towards Lynn Valley; expect a short, scenic walk from the bus stop into the park itself.

🚗 Parking

Parking is famously tight, so arrive early—especially on a sunny weekend—to snag a spot in one of the park's lots. If the lots are full, you're out of luck, as street parking is heavily restricted in the surrounding residential area.
