Sharing Burnaby Lake Trails with Horses

Did you know?

There are horse stables at the east end of Burnaby Lake Regional Park. That means, from time to time, you may encounter horse(s) and rider(s) on the trails. Our friends from the Burnaby Horsemen’s Association have shared these tips so all 2- and 4-legged trail users can be safe!

The Burnaby Horsemen’s Association (BHA) is a registered non-profit, located on the edge of Burnaby Lake Park. The club was founded in 1968 and the land is generously leased from the City of Burnaby. The Association is governed by a rotating volunteer Board of Directors (who are all members). The maintenance, upkeep and daily operations are all run by volunteer club members.  With three barns, the BHA is home to up to 59 horses, who are independently owned and cared for. The site includes an indoor arena, three outdoor arenas, and a round pen.
