Golden Ears Provincial Park

Trips are run from Maple Ridge to the Golden Ears Provincial Park in the Coast Mountains (close to the southern extension of the Garibaldi Provincial Park which is only about 10 km (6 mi.) to the north). Most of the park's leisure activities are centered on Alouette Lake (dam); these include water sports, horse riding, hiking and nature trails. The approximately ten hour hike to Alouette Mountain (1371 m (4500 ft)) where the views are quite outstanding, and the one hour walk to the Lower Falls can both be thoroughly recommended.
