The Vedder River Rotary Trail is Chilliwack at its most local: a long, mostly flat river route used by walkers, cyclists, runners, anglers, and families. It follows dykes and riverside paths, with open views to Vedder Mountain and the Cascade foothills.
You do not need to do the whole loop. Start at Vedder Park, walk or ride a section beside the water, and turn back when you have had enough gravel, river noise, and mountain air.
