Urban Trails: Vancouver, BC | Book Talk

In this region rich with natural beauty, Urban Trails: Vancouver, BC spotlights 55 trails, parks, preserves and greenbelts within Vancouver and across the 21 municipalities of the greater Vancouver area. Some destinations take readers to old-growth forests, lakeshores, coastal beaches, riverfronts, and wildlife-rich wetlands while others uncover accessible trails and peaceful corners right within urban centers. Whether readers are looking for a spot to walk with the kids, take a midafternoon trail run, or enjoy a weekend adventure, Craig Romano has found the perfect spot. Locals may discover--and gain a fresh appreciation for--parks and preserves that reveal a new corner of their city to them while visitors can energize their explorations with a little fitness and outdoor recreation.
