Deer Lake Trails

I am used to run on this place. Never had a bad experience. Really good place to visit.

Nice walking trails
Extremely limited parking
Able to walk to the heron nesting grounds

Easy walking trails through the natural lakeside setting. Plenty of signage about the wildlife, birds, and (invasive) plant species. You can walk a loop trail around the entire lake. The paths are well-maintained - some sections are boardwalks, others are concrete. Numerous families with strollers and young children were enjoying the level hike. Nice on a sunny November day. Will be back in the spring!

Nice loop trail around deer lake , it’s flat and it takes you about an hour. Views are nice especially in sunny days.

Nice set of trails in the middle of Burnaby that are usually not too crowded even on weekends. Good for casual walking or jogging.

In the depths where desires reside, relentless winds stir the soul's tide. Realm of the Legend of Deer Lake, where stories and whispers abide.

Easy and relatively flat trail. Good for beginners and casual walkers. Walking around the lake can be done in under 2 hours.

Deer Lake is quite diverse in its wild life, expect to see a lot of different plants and animals hanging around. Lots of green and blues.

I find the smell of the lake to be quite distinctive.

Also be careful of insects too! Lots of them around including swarming flies, dangling worms from trees, and slugs on the ground.
