  • Regional Park Reserves & Ecological Conservancy Areas
    Metro Vancouver's regional parks system includes three regional park reserves (Blaney Bog, Widgeon Marsh and Fraser Islands) and two ecological conservancy areas (Burns Bog and Codd Wetland). A reserve is a regional park that is not yet open to the public. The priority for the ecological conservation areas is ecological protection, not public use.

  • Natural Resource Management
    ​Metro Vancouver's goal is to conserve ecosystem health to ensure long-term resiliency. Regional parks play an important role in conserving natural processes, and also sustaining diverse biological communities and habitat. Our goal is to accommodate public use of parkland within the limits of acceptable impact to the ecosystems.

  • Public Safety
    ​Regional parks are safe places to visit but all natural areas have certain hazards. Park visitors need to make themselves aware of potential hazards and make sure they are well-prepared for a visit to regional parks.
  • Wildfire Preparedness & Response
    Metro Vancouver takes wildfires seriously, not only for the regional park space that it protects but also for the safety of the public and neighbouring residents and businesses.
  • Bear Safety
    In the parks and at home, keeping bears wild is everyone’s responsibility. Get tips and information to stay safe around bears.
  • No Smoking in Regional Parks
    ​Smoking is prohibited in all regional parks and greenways, except in designated smoking areas.
