Located on the western edge of Vancouver, Pacific Spirit Regional Park is a hiking and mountain biking playground. There’s over 54 kilometres of accessible trails, with both a mix of forested and shoreline. There are over 1,850 acres of forest in the park, and an easy loop trail will allow you to take a three hour hike through much of it. Not only does the park feature the clothing-optional Wreck Beach on the western edge, but 38 kilometres of the park’s trails are designated multi-use and available for cycling and horseback riding, making the park great for almost any outdoor activity.

And of course, being on the Western tip of the Lower Mainland affords access to two beaches ideal for sports, jogging or simply relaxing.  You can easily walk or bike to both Wreck Beach and Spanish Banks Beach.
