Mundy Park Adventures

Mundy Park is one of the largest urban parks in Coquitlam, British Columbia, covering over 176 hectares (435 acres) of forested land. The park features a mix of mature Douglas fir, cedar, and hemlock trees alongside well-maintained trails and open spaces. Originally part of a farmstead in the early 1900s, the land was set aside for public use in 1971. The park is highly valued for its combination of natural environment and accessible outdoor recreation. Visitors can enjoy hiking, jogging, cycling, and picnicking along an extensive trail network including both paved and unpaved paths. The park also includes playgrounds, sports fields, and a pond, making it family-friendly and appealing to visitors of all ages. Wildlife is abundant, with species such as black-capped chickadees, squirrels, and occasional sightings of deer and raptors. Several trail loops wind through dense forests and gentle hills, providing a quiet urban oasis just minutes away from residential neighborhoods. Mundy Park is well-known locally for its community events and as a hub for outdoor activities throughout the year. The park’s accessibility, natural beauty, and variety of amenities ensure its ongoing popularity as a recreational destination.
