West Hylebos Wetlands Park

This is our first time walking this trail. It is a great place to enjoy nature in the city and parking is free. It’s a nice walk and we spotted several wildlife. There weren’t that many bugs; however, it would be a good idea to put bug spray when it gets warmer.

Relaxing and peaceful boardwalk trail. Easy walk. I walked the entire boardwalk. It’s about 1.5 miles and it took me about 45 minutes with a few stops to take in the beauty. I went on a chilly winter day so I did not encounter a single person on the boardwalk. It was nice. It may be a bit more crowded on warmer days.

Such a cool spot. Could use some clean up in areas and some parts are a bit slippery, but otherwise lovely. It's an easy loop with lots of information along the way.
I'll have to come back for a picnic when the weather improves.

We have so much fun enjoying this little walk in our neighborhood. It's very well kept and makes you feel like you're walking through a portal to nature paradise. So much diverse plants and ecosystems on this easy walk. We will visit regularly!

We love this short loop! It's quick and refreshing as the swampland and trees are dense and you can easily forget you're in the middle of town. No dogs allowed but easy for kids, just have to make sure everyone stays on the boardwalk. Sometimes it's a little slick but it's always very manageable.
