Pitt Meadows

Nestled in the lush plains between the Fraser River and the towering peaks of Golden Ears, Pitt Meadows finds its home just north-east of Vancouver in British Columbia’s scenic Lower Mainland. This riverside city is charmed by its open farmland, winding dykes, and tranquil waters, all set against breathtaking mountain backdrops that never lose their allure, no matter the season. Pitt Meadows truly feels like a wonderful blend of cultivated countryside and close-knit community life, and the moment you cross the Pitt River Bridge, you sense the pace shift.

The West Coast Express whispers through the historical city centre, where charming shops, locally owned bakeries, and vibrant cafes create a friendly hub for neighbours and visitors alike. Cycle along the Pitt River Greenway or paddle a kayak along crystal-clear sloughs, taking in the vivid blues and greens that define the area’s colour palette. Birdwatchers flock to the renowned Pitt-Addington Marsh, where every sunrise brings a chorus of herons and eagles overhead.

Pitt Meadows comes to life each summer during the Pitt Meadows Day festival, a proud tradition for over 80 years, featuring a lively parade, local artisans, and family-friendly events in Harris Road Park. Food lovers will find plenty to savour, with farmers’ markets, U-pick berry farms in the fertile valley, and cozy eateries offering West Coast flavours at every turn. Whether it’s touring the artful murals downtown or catching a concert at the ACT Arts Centre nearby, Pitt Meadows never fails to surprise and delight, all while inviting you to slow down and experience BC at its most welcoming.
