Kanaka Creek Regional Park, Nature reserve in Maple Ridge, Canada

Kanaka Creek Regional Park extends across 400 hectares, following 12 kilometers of creek through forests and canyons near the Fraser River.

The park territory was initially inhabited by Katzie, Kwantlen, Matsqui, Musqueam, Semiahmoo, and Tsleil-Waututh Indigenous communities before the 1850s.

The name Kanaka originates from Hawaiian terminology for workers, referencing Pacific Islander families who settled in the region during the 1850s.

The park features multiple entrance points with parking facilities, restrooms, picnic areas, and trails suitable for walking, hiking, and horseback riding.

The park contains one of the most complete stream ecosystems in the Lower Mainland, supporting over 130 bird species and seasonal salmon runs.
