Parks, Trails & Recreation

While the District is home to many local and neighbourhood parks, we also have larger parks and attractions that are popular with visitors from around the world.

Are you interested in hosting a race, trail, or community event in a park or public space? All park events need to be booked in advance, and are subject to availability.

With over 3,000 hectares of parkland throughout the District, we rely on volunteers to help us care for and maintain our trails, greenbelts, creeks and neighbourhood parks.

North Vancouver is one of Canada's most active, healthy, and creative communities, and our residents value a healthy lifestyle.

Celebrate, remember, and honour a special life event through our Parks Dedication Program.

Are you a recreational boater looking for a place to launch or moor your boat? Cates Park/Whey-ah-Wichen offers a boat launch and Gallant Wharf has temporary moorage available.
