Review from Jenni B.

The North Delta watershed is my favorite for biking, and also a wonderful place for a nature walk or run.
Fortunately I know these trails really well, so I'm always pleased as pie to cruise by the Scouting Pavillion (for Scout camping I assume), then down to the side opposite my entry to the creek/spring water fountain where my dog will usually jump in and start drinking. In the middle of the park is a meadow with a lovely look out point to stop and smell the roses, and maybe enjoy a picnic lunch.
There are always people out on the trails, but we warn cyotes do habitate and I once ran into (almost literally) a small pack mid afternoon. In general there is a lot of wild life here. This is a popular site for dog walking too, note it is an on leash park (I do regularly see off leash dogs in here, most owners are responsible and will leash up when they see another park visitor)
There are walking/running trails and biking trails (for those mountain bikers out there) that range in difficulty.
This park also kicks some other forest butt by having free parking.Listed in: North Delta ~ What

Review from Stephan W.

The Watershed is a great way to get "into the forest" without driving past Mission or Squamish! We come here every weekend to walk the dog and the kids. It's not officially an off leash dog area but most people have their dogs off. The trails are smooth enough to ride on and there are some mtn bike dedicated trails as well. With young kids a jogging stroller is no prob but you might get by with a regular one as well. There is a big grassy clearing halfway through the walk we normally do where we let our toddler out of the stroller to run around. Access is very easy, lots of parking always. We live in east Richmond and get there in about 5 minutes, just a quick hop over the Alex Fraser!

Beautiful park. Except for faint traffic noise in the distance you can easily convince yourself you are in the woods a hundred miles from the city. The city posts warnings at certain times of year, pertaining to wildlife, and, based on the animal traffic through my yard, I would say that it's probably wise to heed them. Nice for walking or running with bike specific trails as well. Very nice place to spend an afternoon.
