Kanaka Creek Watershed Stewardship Centre

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

​Located in beautiful Kanaka Creek Regional Park in Maple Ridge.

Discover watershed stewardship and the wonders of nature at the Kanaka Creek Watershed Stewardship Centre.

Here, you'll find:

  • A fish hatchery
  • Stormwater management landscaping
  • Large outdoor education spaces and gathering areas
  • Indoor facilities for education and community programs

Explore the centre's grounds, view interpretive signs and venture into Kanaka Creek Regional Park along connected trails. Meet volunteers and join programs to speak with people who work on stewardship projects and lead education activities.

This centre is the result of extraordinary working relationships between Metro Vancouver, the Kanaka Education and Environmental Partnership Society (KEEPS) and the Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada.​
