Not much of a park. Unattended and never taken care of. The highlight is the
View of the bridge and the mountains
It's got a treehouse!!!
It is a small park in the northeast corner of Vancouver at the top of boundary road. There is some trails in a forested area that lead to a couple of other parks, one in Burnaby and the other to New Brighton Park. There is a couple of tree forts and there is a nice view of the rail bridge and the iron workers bridge with the mountains in the background.
Bates Park is tucked into the northeast corner of the city, where the Second Narrows Bridge can be glimpsed through a tangle of native trees. Summer is an especially nice time to visit this tiny park, when dragonflies hover over the wildflowers and golden grasses that lead down to a portion of the Trans-Canada Trail.
Bates Park is named for the civic-spirited owner of the property, who near the end of his life, bequeathed his most prized possession to the Vancouver Park Board. This act of generosity allowed park staff to assemble several surrounding properties and join them together for a larger greenspace in this park deficient community.
Love walking the trail. Lots of people walking anf jogging.
Small, nice, but traffic noise can be annoying
