Overview

To the west of Simon Fraser University, the park slopes down to the suburb of Burnaby. It offers splendid views of downtown and the Islands through the Playground of the Gods, a monument for Japanese-Canadian friendship, and of Indian Arm to the north. <br /><br />The mountain, water and city views from high atop Burnaby Mountain make this destination popular for locals and visitors alike. The green hillside offers room to throw a frisbee or send a kite soaring. A network of trails offers a variety of hiking, walking and jogging options, and there is a playground tucked into the upper hillside.<br /><br />There is also a rose garden, some interesting totem poles and a restaurant.
