Canada’s Pacific Northwest offers incredible natural sights and is widely renowned for some of the country’s best weather. Residents of Intracorp’s Gardena development will have ample opportunity to embrace the wonder of this region from the many parks that traverse the region. In particular, three Burquitlam parks within a close radius to Gardena were recently renovated: Brookmere Park, Cottonwood Park, and Mountain View Park. Each offers an incredible, state-of-the art space, perfect for connecting with loved ones, getting your sweat on, or setting the stage for little ones’ playtime.
Brookmere Park
An expansive park nestled in Burquitlam’s bustling urban core, Brookmere Park offers large grassy lawns and sports facilities that include a natural turf field, basketball court, and baseball diamond. The park is fully equipped with a large, state-of-the-art playground that was installed during the recent renovations, and the picnic tables that surround the park transform it into the perfect destination for family outings or afternoon catch-ups.
Cottonwood Park
Located in the Burquitlam-Lougheed neighbourhood, Cottonwood Park is soon to complete a major multi-year expansion. This expansive park covers over 11 acres, and includes a comprehensive sports facility with a softball diamond, soccer field, multi-use sports court, and even parkour elements for the urban adventurer. Cottonwood Park is a fantastic setting for younger parkgoers, and includes a new playground, a water play area ideal for hot days, a youth activity and social area, and a covered picnic shelter.
Even better – there’s still more to come for Cottonwood Park in the following years. Stay tuned for three lit racket sports courts and a permanent trail connection to Cottonwood Avenue.
Mountain View Park
Located in the quiet residential street of Smith Avenue, Mountain View Park is a compact yet comprehensive outdoor sports facility.
