Dogs Romping on Ambleside Beach

Blind Photographer and contributor to this website, Cathy McKie (aka EYZWIDESHUT), has had one of her images featured in the latest Schmap Vancouver travel guide. Her image, Dogs Romping on Ambleside Beash, is one of several images showing Ambleside Park.

As the name suggests, this parkland is a perfect place for a beachside amble or jog. It has views of downtown Vancouver, Stanley Park, and the Lions Gate Bridge. It is a popular meeting place for nature lovers and health buffs. It has a fitness circuit, dog path, bird sanctuary, pitch ‘n’ putt and the Centennial Seawalk. It is also the home of the Ferry Building, a heritage gallery that showcases work by local artisans. During the summer, a vintage steam locomotive, the Royal Hudson, passes through the park twice daily.

The guide is also available in as an iPhone app.
