Burns Bog

Description

Burns Bog is a raised peat bog located in Delta, British Columbia, Canada. It is the largest undeveloped urban landmass in North America. It is also the only known raised peat bog in a Mediterranean climate. Burns Bog is a treasure of a special kind, in part due to its sheer size, making it home to many beautiful and rare plants, animals and insects. It is also a green space that provides the Lower Mainland with priceless services such as air and water filtration.

Flat paths great for biking.
