By bicycle from Burnaby to Vancouver

This ride takes you from the heart of Burnaby into the vibrant city of Vancouver—a great mix of suburban calm and urban buzz. You’ll roll out with a gentle climb early on, with about 168 meters of ascent, but most of your path is smooth sailing thanks to well-maintained asphalt. The route is mostly along quiet roads and dedicated cycle paths, letting you relax and ride without stress.

Starting in Burnaby, you’ll pass through neighborhoods tucked between green parks and tree-lined streets, then descend gradually as you approach Vancouver. Burnaby itself is known for its big parks and multicultural vibe, while your destination—Vancouver—is famous for its beautiful scenery and bustling downtown.

Almost the whole way is paved, and you’ll spend over three-quarters of the time on peaceful roads, only topping off with a bit of dedicated cycleway riding as you enter the city. It’s a fantastic city-to-city pedal, perfect for commuters or anyone up for exploring both sides of Metro Vancouver in under two hours!
