The Seawall Walk is a raised walkway in stone built around the perimeter of Stanley Park, a lush oasis of a 405-hectare public park located in downtown Vancouver.  The 10 km (6.25mi.) loop paved path is identified as one of the largest scenic walks in the world. It follows a one-way anti-clockwise path and is divided into two signposted sections: one for walkers and joggers and the other for cycling or rollerblading. The middle of the park features some amazing and peaceful crushed gravel and forest trails suitable for both pedestrians and bikes to explore!

Stanley Park runs along the waterfront with some stunning and unique views of the downtown Vancouver skyline, North Shore Mountains, Burrard Inlet, Lost Lagoon, Beaver Lake and English Bay.

I've been there several times by bike but this time I walked with my dog and it was fun for both of us!.

And here I tell you what to do, what to see and how to reach this enchanting green lung, surrounded by nature and history.
