# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Sea To Simon Loop Walk
- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 17 Jun, 2026 at 10:00 am – Wed, 17 Jun, 2026 at 02:30 pm
- **Event Description**: ? Sea to Simon is a Burnaby Mountain loop that starts at the water at Barnet Marine Park Beach, does a wide circle up past the Playground of The Gods & Mintara, and up the Trans Canada Trail to SFU and Starbuck’s/Tim Horton’s in the Lohn Building.  After a lunch break, we loop back on the Trans Canada Trail down to the Barnet Trail and back to the Barnet Marine Park start point. 
Elevation gain: 347 meters
Distance: 15.3km
Shoes with good tread are recommended; hiking poles are optional (I don’t use them, Debbie likes one).
There are opportunities to transit out of the walk at SFU and when we get back down to Barnet Hwy. if you want to leave earlier.
Note: The Velodrome Trail 500 stairs is officially closed, so I can’t say I’ll lead you there.  However, if everyone demands that we take that route, who am I to say no!  This takes about 3km off the distance. 

? Meeting Spot: Barnet Marine Park, Barnet Hwy and Takeda Drive, Burnaby.  Meet by the washrooms at the bottom of the pedestrian overpass (NOT the concession building), before 10:00AM. 
Note: The Pin on the fb map is on the wrong side of Barnet Hwy.  Please use the Google Map link I provided. 
Be sure to arrive early/on time.  I do not have data and cannot check the fb page for comments if you are running late or changing your RSVP after 9:00. If you are running late and I have not heard from you, my assumption is that you are not coming and you will be marked as a no show. People with multiple no-shows will be removed from the group.  We can wait for people running a couple of minutes late. If we leave before you arrive, you can catch up to us with a little effort.  The photo is the entrance to the Barnet Beach overpass leading to our meeting point.

? Route: From the water at Barnet Beach, we will take the Mountain Air Trail passed the Velodrome to Drumond’s Walk.  Drumond’s Walk takes us to Bayview Dr, Barnet Rd, Duthie, and Pandora to Ridgeview Trail.  Gnomes Home Trail and Pandora Trail will take us to Mintara where we can take a short break.  Then Trans Canada Trail to the upper floor of the Lohn Building for lunch.  The Trans Canada Trail takes us back down to the bottom of the Mountain.  Cougar Creek Trail and Barnet Trail will get us back to the starting point of Barnet Marine Park.

? This walk should be under 4.4 hours and 15.3km.  We will walk at an intermediate (4kmh) pace, take microbreaks (~1min) at various junctions, and a lunch break around Noon.  The walk will be shortened if the weather is more than light rain during the walk.

? Pedometer Map Link: https://www.mappedometer.com/?maproute=1003171 
Because the Velodrome Trail 500 stairs are officially closed, the pedometer map will not let me show that route.  The pedometer also thinks we need to detour to a crosswalk to cross Ridgeview Drive (I’ll leave that to your discretion). 

?Transit options: 160 Port Coquitlam Station / Kootenay Loop to Barnet Marine Park.
? Parking: Use the left (west) parking lot at Barnet Marine Park (closest to the overpass).

? Washrooms: Barnet Marine Park, Mintara on Burnaby Mountain, and The Lohn Building in SFU.

? Please bring plenty of water and a lunch, or purchase lunch at Starbuck’s. 

No dogs, please.
