Nestled between Maple Ridge on the east and Pitt River on the west, Pitt Meadows is situated in BC's southwest - approximately 35 kilometres from Vancouver proper.
The city is a flood plain town and home to Pitt Lake, known to be the world's largest fresh-water tidal lake. Pitt Meadows also features a series of dykes, which can be explored on foot or on bike and offers some amazing scenery.
Along with a system of trails, the area surrounding the dykes offer an abundance of natural wildlife - including several bird species, which makes the dyke system particularly popular among bird-watchers and naturalists. The area is also part of the Trans-Canada Trail - the world's longest trail system at 16,400 kilometres - which actually begins in Pitt Meadows and winds through both urban and rural settings.
