It&#8217;s part of the still unfinished <strong>Trans Canada Trail<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3>How to get to the Osprey Loop Dyke Trail from Vancouver<\/h3>\n<p>To get to this dog friendly trail just east of Vancouver: Travel east on Highway 1. Take the Maple Ridge exit (the last exit before the Port Mann toll bridge). Follow the Maryhill Bypass to the Pitt River Bridge. Cross the bridge. Turn left at the second set of lights (Harris Road). You will reach a stop sign. Go straight through for about a km. On the right is a parking lot; on the left is a small verge where you can also park. The Osprey Loop trail is on the left side, so try to park on that side.<\/p>\n<p>The Osprey Loop is well worth the trip \u2013 you need to transport your bikes (and your dogs) there, but once you get there, it\u2019s a little slice of cycling heaven. This dog friendly trail is a dyke trail that runs alongside the Alouette and Pitt Rivers, slicing through the beautiful Pitt Meadows countryside, with horizons as far as the eye can see.<\/p>\n<figure

Here it is \u2013 unfortunately the lady declined to be photographed, but here is her tough old Raleigh. We were very impressed to see a senior person enjoying miles of cycling on a vintage bike.

This dog friendly trail is bike friendly, dog friendly, and human friendly. But if you go there in the afternoon on the weekend, do not expect to be able to ride fast. There are dogs roaming free everywhere, and young children enjoying possibly their first bike ride. On the other hand, what a great place to take your child to learn to ride a bike.

But to use this dog friendly trail as a cycling training trail, you really would need to get there at daybreak on the weekends, or fairly early on a weekday. Mrs. Average Joe Cyclist took a walk there recently with our grandson, at 10 a.m. on a weekday, and it was very quiet, and they saw a bald eagle. She says you could have done a cycling training ride there at that time, as it was very quiet.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">However, on weekend afternoons, there will be too many small children and dogs for it to be safe to cycle fast.<\/p>\n<p>As for dogs on this dog friendly trail: part of the trail specifies on-leash dogs, and part of it specifies off-leash dogs \u2013 for no logical reason that we could see. However, the reality is that no one has their dogs on leash \u2013 there really is no reason for it. If someone had a dog that chased wildlife, that would be a reason \u2013 but all the dogs we saw were well behaved, friendly, and totally <strong>not<\/strong> dangerous. This is definitely one of the best dog friendly trails we have ever found.
