Vancouver Venturers Walking Club

Our walks are restricted to club members who have paid $15 for a 12-month membership. However, if you would like to try one or two walks before committing yourself to a paid membership, you do have that option. (You’d still need to pay $1.00 for each walk.) For more information about our club and/or to request a membership form, please send an email to vancouverventurers@gmail.com. In the subject line of your email, write MEETUP.

Walkers will register (sign in) at the start point between 9:30 am and 9:55 am. The walk will start at 10:00 am sharp. Please be on time; we do not accommodate latecomers.

Please note: Although the number of attendees indicated on this page may appear low, be assured that you will be walking with many club members who have not RSVP’d. We rarely have fewer than 15 participants at any of our walks.

Route Description:
Description: Come and enjoy some outstanding Fraser River views as we walk the Ladner dyke all the way from Lions Park to Ladner Reach Marina. There is lots to see and plenty of history on this walk as we pass by the Historic Fisherman’s Hall (est. 1943) as well as a plaque honoring the founder of Ladner Village. Have you ever wondered what life is like in a floating home? Now is your chance to find out because we walk through the Ladner Reach Marina – home to 29 float homes with “to die for” views along with some quirky pieces of Expo 86 memorabilia! On a clear day, take in the river, wetland and mountain views – you won’t be disappointed!

NOTE: Once you have RSVP’d, our Meetup site will always show your status as “Unpaid”. This is not a cause for concern. The $1.00 participation fee for the walk is paid at the start point and to save us some work, we will not be recording on Meetup that you have paid it.

If you have any questions, you will likely find the answers in “About us”. If, after having read all of that, you still have questions, please post them here on Meetup or send an email to vancouverventurers@gmail.com.

ROUTE DESCRIPTION:
We will head to Coal Harbour and walk counter-clockwise on the seawall around Stanley Park. The 10/11 km Seawall loop around iconic Stanley Park is a “MUST SEE” and “MUST DO” activity in Vancouver. It is one of our series of 8 walks in Stanley Park. It offers breathtaking views of Vancouver harbour, the city skyline, North Shore Mountains & English Bay. This route goes past famous landmarks and heritage features such as First Nations Totem Poles, Brockton Point & Prospect Point Lighthouses, Siwash Rock. There are beaches, rock cliffs and coastal forests of majestic cedar, hemlock and fir trees. You will see popular west coast wildlife, including marine life: squirrels, raccoons, skunks, coyotes, herons, eagles, seals and otters.
There are two 5 km routes: (i) mostly around the east side of the Seawall and back via the Rose Garden (ii) trails to Beaver Lake, then the Aquarium and back via the Seawall.

Immediately following the walk, you may wish to join some of your fellow club members at the nearby lunch venue.
