At the south west corner of this great park is the Christmas Light Display around Lafarge Lake area. Lights at 4:30PM daily and runs to mid January. There is 1.2 km long walk around the lake surrounded by the light displays. Really is a GEM of an opportunity to go experience. Beautiful!

Used to live 3 block away, a small piece of heaven in Coquitlam. Soft surface running or walking track surrounding stocked lake, open to juvenile and senior anglers. Platform built to facilitate safe fishing. Fairly large parking lot for those who can’t walk, but enjoy beauty, nature and quiet.

What to say? Old growth forest, small lakes, trail system with excellent drainage so that it never gets muddy, even with all the rain we have here. Dog friendly areas and trail times. Whenever I walk or jog through the park, I'm reminded that the most relaxing colour is green.

Having lived in PoCo for years before I was surprised and delighted to learn that this was only minutes away from dt! The path access almost hidden in the bushes. Residential street parking. Wide easy paths. If you’re taking a stroller I would recommend going days after the last rain and it’s dense so moisture lingers in wide path covering puddles. There are bears in the area and after a rainfall you’ll easily see their footprints! Be mindful of where you are ???? I was there early in the morning (before 8) and only saw a handful of people. The falls are about 30-45mins in depending on how fast you walk. If the run off is low enough you can cross the falls river and go to the other side where the path continues and takes you to another waterfall!

The light displays around the Lafarge Lake gets better every year! Note: It's Free to See! Also vehicle parking is also free, although I recommend you need to come early as it gets very busy on any evening! Nicely organized giving everyone directions for walking around the lake. If you like mini doughnuts & hot chocolate there a some tasty treats for everyone to enjoy! Washrooms for the public are also available for the public.

Always loved this park, have been going for 30 years or so. It’s got a little bit for everyone. Kids playground is a blast and in summer there’s a dipping pool for the kids. Lots of trees to crash under in the shade and picnic or whatever.

Very well maintained, any attire and shoes is fine. Broken into 4 sections so you can do a little or a lot. About 6,000 steps to the top and back. Mostly stairs, pavement or gravel path. Nothing steep but a good workout if you go at a good clip. Nice view from the top as well.
