Port Coquitlam

Community Overview

Situated at the confluence of the Fraser and Pitt rivers, Port Coquitlam is the epitome of small-town allure. The historic downtown core is surrounded by numerous parks, trails, and recreational amenities, including trailside gym stations, outdoor pools, and community centres.

This section of the ETF network runs along the Traboulay Poco Trail, a well-established route for pedestrians and cyclists. Although pipeline construction currently blocks the connection to the larger ETF route at Colony Farms, trail users can take an alternate path along the Mary Hill Bypass.

About The Info on This Page - Canyon to Coast Trail

The information on this page currently focuses on the Canyon to Coast Trail component. Experience the Fraser (ETF) is a recreational, cultural and heritage project that extends along the Lower Fraser River Corridor connecting Hope to the Salish Sea. The project consists of three main components:

  • Greenway - The Canyon to Coast Trail

  • Blueway - recreational use of the river

  • Experiences & Attractions - major attractions and experiences, community amenities and feature points

The information provided here is specifically related to the Greenway - The Canyon to Coast Trail which is the backbone of the overall ETF project. As of 2023, a continuous route has been mapped; however wayfinding signage for the route has not been fully implemented. Community reports, maps, and other information shared here are a resource for communities for informational and planning purposes only. The final route will be determined collaboratively with partners as part of the ETF implementation process.
