Guided Tour of the Trees on the səmiq̓ʷəʔelə/Riverview Lands in Coquitlam
The Riverview Horticultural Centre Society invites you to a Guided Tree Tour of a significant and beautiful part of the Lower Mainland, the historic səmiq̓ʷəʔelə/Riverview Lands Arboretum.
Sunday April 12, 1pm – 3pm
Join the Riverview Horticultural Centre Society (RHCS) for the first tree tour of səmiq̓ʷəʔelə/Riverview of 2026.
Tree tours are leisurely guided walks allowing viewing of some of the more than 1600 catalogued trees on the site. A certified arborist will lead the tour and provide information on the trees and their significance. This is a free, 2-hour, family-friendly event and all are welcome. Dogs must be on-leash. No advance registration is required.
This is the 34th year that RHCS has offered these tours that educate residents of all ages about the world-class collection of rare trees planted on the səmiq̓ʷəʔelə site. Please join the tour to show your support for preserving the priceless natural heritage of the səmiq̓ʷəʔelə/Riverview Lands.
Meet in the Serenity Garden down the slope from the Henry Esson Young (HEY) Building on the səmiq̓ʷəʔelə/Riverview Lands in Coquitlam. Watch for Tree Tour direction signs when you enter the site.
Please check the RHCS website, https://rhcs.org/ and social media (Facebook and Instagram) for any last-minute changes, due to unforeseen circumstances.
