Great trails,
This place is a good hike with lots of trails fun times
Great place to walk the dog or go for a nice hike!
Nice ride.
It is possible to ride up to the campus from Forest Grove Park avoiding Gaglardi Way. There are trails through the Park that connects with the TransMountain trail. Follow the trail up under the powerlines near the Kwekwecnewtxw (Coast Salish Watch House). It is a little overgrown at the creek crossing but otherwise ok. At Gaglardi (there is NO crosswalk) connect with the service road then Water Main trail (steep) on the other side.
Not sure if the map shows the same trail as I went on but this trail starts and ends at the burnaby mountain parking lot.
You can either head up and you will see markers for the trans Canada trail. The hike that I'm reviewing starts at the top of burnaby mountain swings past sfu goes down towards Barnett marine park and goes back up the mountain finishing off with a 500 step climb to get you back to the burnaby mountain parking lot.
Overall it's a generally easy hike. The markers are not that well displayed as there is a part where you have to cross the parking lot by the bike park to connect back to the trail that is not described well. Summer time is much easier and will take around 90 to 120 minutes depending and is approximately 12 km. Winter it's another story as you can see. Deep snow and icy conditions make it more difficult but easily doable. Waterproof boots will be needed as the trail is not that used in the winter. During the winter depending on your fitness level could take 3 to 4 hours some parts snowshoes are recommended depending on snow levels.
