We have walked the Fort To Fort trail many times and have noticed the entrance to the Derby Reach Heritage Park but never explored it until now. We did the Houston Trail loop and loved it every step of the way. The path is wide and covered with crushed gravel. There are huge trees and plenty of moss. The air is oxygenated and lovely to breathe. There is just enough undulation in the trails to give you a gentle workout. We will definitely be back!

By the Fraser River (although at present Derby Reach is flooded) campgrounds, a parking lot for quite a few cars, a dog walk park, trails all the way to Fort Langley (a 5km walk), picnic areas along the river and a grassy area to play, Great for groups, weddings, family gatherings, etc.......or if you wish, a lazy stroll along the trail to Fort Langley where one can shop, and/or eat, or just peruse the lovely shops.

This little park is very pretty and a nice walk through many different natural habitats. It is peaceful and a nice place to bring family to get re-connected with nature.

I love, love, love this trail. I ran it dozens of times, including lunch hour when I'm at work. The trail itself is always well maintained and has great views of the south arm of the Fraser River, beautiful homes and even an old growth forest if you go up into Derby Park on the south side of Allard Cresent where you will be on the Houston Trail (there are parking lots and washrooms for the Houston Trail on both the south and North Side of the park).

Campbell Valley Regional Park is maintained by the Metro Vancouver Regional Parks board. The park is formed from 6 historical farm plots, with portions set aside for the Langley Tree Farm and scout Camp McLean. It contains a vast number of hiking, walking and equestrian trails as well as function facilities such as picnic shelters. Within the park there are 29 kilometres of trails, all unpaved, 14 km of which are designated for equestrian use and 1 km of which is set aside solely for pedestrian and bicycle use. More bicycle trails have become available since the 2009 construction of the perimeter trail. The Southern end of the park is home to both the Rowlatt Farmstead and the historical Lochiel Schoolhouse. Both landmarks predate 1924. In the late 19th century and the early 20th century, many logging companies took advantage of the temperate rainforest in the area and clearcut the entire park. During this time, logging railways wound throughout the park. The route of one such rail line is clearly visible today along the Ravine Trail at the South end of the park. The routes of the railways are marked on park maps. An old paved racing oval is located in the eastern section of the park and is maintained by the Langley Speedway Historical Society. In the past, it was host to local and NASCAR racing events.

I have been driving my grandkids to various places in GVRD to experience being with birds, ducks, geese and others and only realized this month that we don't need to go far to do it. We have now visited this lagoon 3 times the past 2 weeks and we always have bird food always ready in my car. It's a very short walk from Brydon Park which is also a nice playground.

My wife and I have been to this park many times over the years. Now I am surprised no previous review has been written of this hidden jewel in the Langley area. This park has extensive picnic areas; both covered and outside. The covered area is very nice and quaint and can be reserved by contacting the Langley City Park Board. Bathroom facilities are very clean and accessible. This park has a wide appeal for everyone. A new playground has been constructed. Down the stairs, behind the big picnic area, is a stream with information boards about the salmon spawning in the nearby stream. There are also well groomed trails to check out

One oclock is feeding time for the big cats and you will be so close to them, you can almost feel their breath on you. The Keeper gives an informative talk as the lion paces back and forth along the fence line. He knows it is dinner time and will stretch tall on his hind legs to grab a mouthful from the Keeper. You can take your time and walk the wide paths which can take you a couple hours if you want to take it all in or ride the train. It is a photographers paradise for animal pictures with natural settings and no concrete walls or floors. I was ten feet from a grizzly bear as it paced back and forth and then disappeared into the trees. So many animals to see and wonderful to see them in a natural. setting. Watch the raptors show and stay later to get your picture taken with a rather large and breathtaking owl. There is a concession stand, washrooms and playground when you first enter the Zoo.There is also a concession stand (cash only) and washrooms up at the grizzly and black bear enclosures. The parking fee is reasonable at 6 dollars and if the lineup is a long one as it can be on the weekends, there will be a girl outside to take a electronic payment and you go right through. I have been going there for over twenty years and look forward to every visit. The grandchildren love it too.
