of trails that are suitable for hiking, horseback

Neilson Regional Park
This 10 hectare park, located on the west side of
Hatzic Lake, has become the major public park on the
lake. The eastern exposure of the park offers
a magnificent view across Hatzic Lake and up the
Fraser Valley to Mount Cheam and the Cheam Ridge.
Neilson Park is popular for large picnics and
organized gatherings, nature viewing and beach
activities. A small run of Chum salmon, which
arrive in early November, spawn in Draper Creek that
runs through the park. Neilson Park has full
facilities with two toilets, water, picnic shelter,
and 18 picnic tables.
Dewdney Nature Regional Park
This 7 hectare nature park is located outside the
dyke on the east side of River Road South. This site
provides an excellent location for bar fishing along
the Fraser River, and is used extensively by local
fishermen. A boat launch is available on site.
Dewdney Nature Park also provides an assembly area
for walking along the nearby Dewdney Dyke.
Fraser River Heritage Park
Fraser River Heritage Park is located at one of the
most breathtakingly beautiful locations to be found
anywhere. The site of many community activities,
including weekly Wednesday evening concerts at the
bandstand during the summer months, the park is also
visited regularly by local residents for the sheer
enjoyment of the setting. The Norma Kenney House
includes a gift shop, restaurant, and administrative
offices. The park also houses the historic ruins of
St. Mary's Mission and Indian Residential School,
and will soon boast the completion of the
restoration of the Grotto site, an important
pilgrimage location.
