Golden Ears Provincial Park
About
The Sani-Station or RV dump is located off the main roadway that leads into the park. It is situated before you reach the information shelter and campgrounds. To use the facility, you will need to bring either two toonies and a loonie or five loonies as the payment machine does not accept bills or provide change. At the station, you can find both potable and rinse water, with the latter being non-potable. The location of the dump station is approximately 11 km (or 6.8 miles) north of Maple Ridge, specifically on the north side of the Fraser River.

Golden Ears Park, Maple Ridge Golden Ears Park is a true gem in Maple Ridge! The park offers an incredible variety of outdoor experiences, making it perfect for nature lovers. The trails are well-maintained, ranging from easy walks to more challenging hikes, with stunning views throughout. The highlight for me was the waterfall—absolutely breathtaking and worth the short hike to see it up close. Golden Ears Park offers two stunning waterfalls: the **Lower Waterfall** and the **Upper Waterfall**. The Lower Waterfall is easy to reach, with a short, scenic trail through the forest, making it perfect for families or casual hikers. The Upper Waterfall, accessible via a more challenging trail, is larger and more dramatic, rewarding hikers with breathtaking views. The park has a variety of trails for all skill levels. The **Lower Falls Trail** is great for beginners, while the **Upper Falls Trail** provides a more strenuous hike. With beautiful views of forests, ridges, and the lake, Golden Ears Park is a fantastic destination for hikers and nature lovers. For campers, the park has excellent facilities, with spacious, clean sites that are well-suited for both tent camping and RVs. The dog-friendly policy is fantastic, and my furry friend had a blast exploring the trails and even taking a dip in the lake. Speaking of the lake, the views are simply amazing. Whether you're kayaking, picnicking, or just relaxing by the water, the scenery is breathtaking, and the peaceful atmosphere is hard to beat. Highly recommend Golden Ears Park for anyone looking to enjoy nature, relax, and have a memorable outdoor experience!

The view from the lake is breathtaking. Campground is spacious and clean. Would gladly give them 5 stars, except: - they should find a way to corral all the camping generators in one of the 3 campgrounds and allow people in the other 2 to enjoy the majestic forrest without all the noise and the exhaust fumes present in the mornings and evenings, and - toilets out of order in both the campground and the picnic area during full season is a sure recipe for ruining the experience.
Beautiful provincial park however it is extremely busy. During camping seasons you must buy a camping spot within the literal second the tickets go online or you are screwed. Not to mention you need day passes for certain days during the summer and winter which I find ridiculous. It is also an extremely busy park in general and you will have a hard time finding a nice secluded spot with no people unless you really hike. That being said this park is truly beautiful with amazing waterfalls and lakes with gorgeous surrounding by mountains and forests.
