Derby Reach Proposed Campground Expansion

Derby Reach Regional Park is a popular destination for day trips and overnight camping. The current Edgewater Bar Campground, which has 38 campsites that can accommodate tents and RVs, is usually booked for the camping season within a week of reservations opening. The Metro Vancouver Regional District wants to expand the campground with 30 additional campsites.

The following image shows the proposed layout for the campground expansion.

The proposed expansion will occur in the current grassy space so that it won't impact the forested and bog areas.

The Metro Vancouver Regional District will be completing planning work this year, and their current target is to include the expansion within the regional district's 2026 budget.
