Recreation Trails & Activities

Hiking

Living in the Steelhead area definitely has it's advantages. One being that we are so close to many beautiful trails and recreation sites that take Vancouverites over an hour to reach. The District of Mission maintains many trails within the Municipal forests which may be used for hiking, horseback riding or mountain biking. There are a number of unmarked trails as well. When using any trail, just remember to pack-out what you pack-in, enjoy the area and please be safe. Be sure to review the Bear and Cougar safety information before heading out!

Fishing

Located just a few minutes west of Steelhead is Stave Lake with boat launching facilities. Further along the Stave Lake forestry road (Burma Rd) you will also find Sayres (Cedar) Lake, Morgan Lake and Florence Lake.

Make sure you check the BC Fishing Regulations for our region before heading out!
