Описание: ‪@Canadalife7‬ Queen Elizabeth Park
At 125 m above sea level, it's the highest point in Vancouver and makes for spectacular views of the park, city, and mountains on the North Shore.

Queen Elizabeth Park is the highest point within the City of Vancouver proper. Its 52 hectares (about 130 acres) of park land are covered with flowers, gardens and trees.🌳

At the top of Queen Elizabeth Park is the Bloedel Conservatory, plus exceptional views of the city and North Shore Mountains. (Note: Unfortunately, the Bloedel Conservatory is closed for repairs as of October 28th, 2024. It plans to open in January of 2025.)

The park is free, but you have to pay for the Conservatory which is full of birds and plants and might take you about 20 minutes to get through, depending on how interested you are in tropical plants.

The Park’s Location

Queen Elizabeth Park is located in Vancouver at 33rd Avenue and Cambie Street. It’s bordered by 29th and Midlothian Avenue to the north, 37th Avenue to the south and Ontario Street to the east.

The park is across the street from the Hillcrest Aquatic Centre (at 4575 Clancy Loranger Way) and Nat Bailey Stadium (where the Vancouver Canadians baseball team plays, and also where the Riley Park Farmers Market takes place). Queen Elizabeth Park is also just a few blocks from the King Edward SkyTrain Station.

The best times to visit Queen Elizabeth Park are in the spring (for the flowers), the fall (for the autumn leaves), and the summer (when kids like to play in the fountain).

One of the highlights of the park, in addition to the Bloedel Conservatory and views of the city, are the Quarry Gardens. Similar in some ways to the famous Sunken Garden at Butchart Gardens in Victoria (which is BC’s capital city), the Quarry Gardens at Queen Elizabeth Park are both beautiful and also on the site of a former mining rock quarry.

Looking for a great place to get a fancy bite to eat? Then try Seasons in the Park, located right at the top of Queen Elizabeth Park. The restaurant is highly rated and a wonderful place from which to enjoy the views – just be sure to ask the server for a window table.

Golf at Queen Elizabeth Park

The park also has a great little pitch and putt golf course. It’s a small 18-hole course with no element more than 110 yards in length (so good for beginners).

Tee times are on a first-come, first-served basis and hours of operation are from 10:00 am until 5:00 pm (weather permitting) from around the third weekend of March until the fall.

Rates for the pitch and putt course as of the fall of 2024 are the following:

Adults (ages 19 to 64) – $16.54 per game or $109.46 for a monthly pass.
Seniors (ages 65 and older) – $11.55 per game or $76.65 for a monthly pass.
Youth (ages 18 and under) – $11.55 per game or $76.65 for a monthly pass.
Clubs and balls can also be rented for $2.58.

Note: Last rentals are available at 3:00 pm and players are required to have at least two clubs including an iron and a putter.
