About

This 18.42 hectare park was established in 1958 to commemorate B.C. becoming a Crown colony in 1858.
It boasts many amenities from sports fields to a 2.3 km wooded walking trail (quite wide, very few tree roots and a couple of moderately steep sections).
The trails are a favourite for horseback riding.
Some of the outdoor shelters/picnic table areas are able to be booked for events.
Flowing quietly along the western edge of Centennial Park, Graham Creek is a vital part of the local ecosystem.
In recent years, restoration efforts led in partnership with the Hagan Creek – KENNES Watershed Project, have helped bring new life to this natural corridor.
Enhancements include protective fencing along the trail, interpretive signs for visitors, and the planting of native species to restore the creek’s riparian zone.
