Keep yourself busy this Fall with some of my favorite activities in Kits. The nights are getting longer, but that shouldn't keep us indoors. There's plenty going on in Kitsilano at this time of year!
Anything to add? I want to know - send me an email here.
Leafy Walks
Did you know that Kitsilano has 17 parks?! Check them out this fall. You’d be surprised how empty they all are now that there’s been some rain. Fallen leaves, crisp air - you are bound to be revived.
My favourite place to walk is Pacific Spirit. With over 55km of trails, forests, creeks, beaches, cliffs and bog, no walk is the same. Most trails are dog friendly, and it’s a great place to let your pup run. Yukon loves it!
To chill, Margaret Pigott is my spot. With unspoilt views of the North Shore, it's easy to feel grateful for where we live.
Farmers Market
Don’t miss out on Kits Farmers Market. Trust me! With over 50 farms and producers, food and coffee trucks, it’s the place to be for local fresh food.
The market is also dog friendly. (Are you starting to see a theme here?)
Kitsilano Farmers Market takes place each Sunday, 9:30am-2:30pm from May 2-Oct 31 at 10th Ave. & Larch St.
Space Centre
The only un-dog friendly thing on this list. But, it’s worth it. Spend your Friday night star-gazing at the H.R. MacMillan Space Centre. Each week they host a Planetarium Star Theatre show - which is awesome. Visit the observatory and look for new stars. It is great fun for the whole family!
Southlands Pumpkin Patch
Although technically not in Kits. What is fall without pumpkin picking? This is our closest patch and it’s worth the drive. 20 minutes from Kits, Southlands Heritage Farm is an oasis in the city. Get picking!
Halloween Decoration Spotting
If you didn’t know already, some blocks in Kitsilano go all out for Halloween! I am talking; full-sized graveyards, three-stories of decorations and COVID-safe candy slides. The best street last year had to be Trafalgar. Almost every house was decked out.
Have you spotted any spooky houses? Let me know!
