Velodrome Trail

If you want a good workout, start from the Harry J Sport Center parking lot (shortest access point). Velodrome Trail has over 500 steps. Some view points of the ocean inlet along the way. Connects to Burnaby Mountain park top. Hike but no bike.

You can either reach the entrance of the trail from behind the Harry Jerome Sports Centre (bottom going up) or from Burnaby Mountain Park (top going down). Burnaby Mountain Park has more parking available than the narrow road leading up to the parking near Harry Jerome Sports Centre. It is quite a trek up the stairs with over 500+ stairs, but the view of the city and the waters is indeed beautiful at the top. Intermediate difficultly due to the elevation increase from taking so many flights of stairs. Would not recommend for those with little children to go up such steep stairs. Dogs must be kept on leash.

Amazing views and a good practice for grouse grind

Great stairs to get a workout to end with a view. The stairs are quite narrow for a busy day it is tricky to pass other hiking groups.

I absolutely love this trail! So many breathtaking views of the forestry around. They have stairs and trail incorporated into the hike. At the very end, you'll notice it's extremely steep. But once you get passed the final steps you can lay on the grass and have a snack in front of the beautiful totems at Burnaby Mountain.

A few trails interconnect. Gorgerous scenery. Velodrome involves many stairs (apparently >500).

With over 500 steps, it can be a bit tricky to get around when it’s raining. The view from the trail is amazing and totally worth it. As a beginner, I found it pretty tough, but I saw other hikers who were actually running. There are facilities and parking at the top at Burnaby Mountain Park. Overall, it was an awesome experience and a great workout.

Great exercise trail with more than 500 stairs! The incline is worth about 1/4 of the Grouse grind. This is perfect trail for winter months when lots of other hiking trails are unsafe.I always start from mountain air park where parking is abundant. Be sure to go all the way up to the Burnaby mountain to enjoy the view!

A beautiful, short trail to hike and adventure.Beautiful view on the top of the trail.24/7 and free, access with other trails.
