Richmond - Central Richmond- Shell Road Trail


Tuesday, August 26, 2025

A very nice addition to our Richmond Series of walks. A flat (as all Richmond walks are) relaxing walk in Central Richmond. Walking in Garden City Community Park is always a treat with the lagoons and waterfowl to enjoy. The 10K route saves the best for last as we walk a few kilometres on the Shell Road Trail. This rural trail, hidden amongst some interesting neighbourhoods, is a calming walk on a tree-lined (really a tunnel of trees) trail. A very interesting walk to explore. This walk is in our “Explore Richmond” series. "Come Walk With Us”.

Distance: 5/10k

Trail Rating: 1B
