Mundy Park, Coquitlam

When exploring Coquitlam’s Mundy Park, it’s easy to forget you’re in the middle of a bustling city. At over 440 acres, there are enough trails and sights (including two lakes) to keep you busy for multiple visits (or for a really long stroller nap, should you be so lucky). The park is a popular spot for dog walkers and sports enthusiasts as it features a lacrosse box, soccer fields, ball diamond, outdoor swimming pool, and disc golf course.
