Visit Burns Bog

Location

You can visit Burns Bog at the Delta Nature Reserve, located north of 72 Avenue and east of Highway 91. The gravel pathway that runs along the eastern edge of the park can be accessed on foot or bicycle from several points along the road. If you are coming from further away, you may wish to park at the Planet Ice parking lot (we recommend that you ask permission at the arena).

Please Leash Your Dog

Off-leash dogs can spook ground-nesting birds and small mammals, and trample sensitive bog vegetation. Dogs can also cause significant damage to salmon-spawning habitat by causing stream bank erosion and stirring up sediments in the watercourse. To protect our wildlife from the well-intentioned scampering of your four-legged pal,  always keep your dog on leash in this nature reserve.
