The city of Coquitlam is surrounded by parks and trails, which means there’s always an opportunity to explore the great outdoors. The Fraser River acts as a southern boundary and serves up some of the best salmon, trout, and sturgeon fishing in BC. Como Lake is another prime fishing and recreation area, with huge stocks of salmon and cutthroat trout. Looking for thrills? Coquitlam is one of Canada’s most hyped mountain biking destinations, with high octane trails winding their way down Burke and Eagle mountains. For an urban scene head to Austin Heights, a trendy neighborhood dotted with cafés and boutiques.
Coquitlam is at its best in the summer, when the city throws a lively calendar of events. From outdoor concerts and movies under the starts to arts festivals and food truck fairs, there’s always something going on. Late spring and early fall can treat Vancouverites to lashings of sunshine, though winters can be rather rainy. Of course, if you’re planning on hitting the slopes there’s no better time to visit than mid-winter. As well as local mountains like Cypress and Grouse, Coquitlam vacation rentals offer access to the legendary Whistler Blackcomb Resort.
While its just half an hour east of downtown Vancouver, Coquitlam feels worlds away from the city. Many covet Coquitlam for its proximity for nature, with parks, rivers, and mountains all within easy reach. As well as local sites like Como Lake and Mundy Park, Coquitlam is also a jumping-off point to iconic provincial parks like Golden Ears and Garibaldi. If you’re hitting the trails, it’s important to remember that Coquitlam is still bona fide bear country, so you’ll need to carry bear spray and keep dogs leashed.
