Maple Ridge Park: Maple Ridge

Located along the sparkling South Alouette River at the corner of 232nd Street and Fern Crescent, this park offers picnic areas, washrooms, a baseball diamond, a horseshoe pitch area, a playing field, and a wooded trail. An expanse of mature forest nurses a wide array of native plants and wildlife and each autumn the South Alouette River welcomes large populations of spawning Pink and Chum salmon. The Kinsmen spray park is open to the public on a weather permitting, seasonal basis.

Thoughts:
This is a nice large park with plenty of updated equipment for children of all ages. Climbing rocks, playground equipment, slides, swings, fields, water park and sheltered area, this park has it all.

Pros:
Plenty to do for all kids with different size playground equipment and even the water park has 2 areas, one for smaller children and one for bigger kids.

Cons:
Limited number of swings, so on a busy day there would be a wait but there is lots of other stuff to do. There is limited parking for the size of the park so on a busy day it might be difficult to find a spot.
