The BCMOS summer season focuses on "Day Hikes," enabling people with disabilities to venture out into wilderness areas.
BCMOS is making TrailRiders available for guided hikes at Pacific Spirit Regional Park Mondays to Thursdays throughout the the summer season. (The 1,885-acre Pacific Spirit Regional Park, on the University of BC Endowment Lands, is a truly beautiful multi-purpose recreational area.)
In addition, BCMOS will offer theme hikes on Fridays. These will be half-day hikes to specific destinations, or with specific activities in mind. (See below for examples.)
We will also be promoting TrailRider rentals, giving clients more say in their destinations. TrailRiders fold up to fit into most hatchback vehicles, enabling people to take part in activities ranging from family picnics to school outings.
In all cases, contact our hiking office to make arrangements.
Hikers will need to organize their own “Sherpas.”
