Richmond Event – Saturday, January 7th, 2012.
Join Walk Richmond for a stroll to Finn Slough. Meet at 10:00 am on Saturday, one block west of No 5 Road off Dyke Road.
Finn Slough was founded by Finnish settlers in the 1880s. The walk will pass by the historic community of Finn Slough which provides gorgeous unobstructed views of the Fraser River. Finn Slough is sometimes called Gilmore or Tiffin Slough and long ago was a popular place for Richmond fishermen to live. The remaining houses are a small reminder of what life was like along the mighty Fraser River many years ago.
Finn Slough is located in the Gilmore Real Estate area of Richmond BC , home to many of Richmond’s farms, country estates and Equestrian properties.
Walk Richmond provides free guided walks throughout Richmond and is led by the Richmond Fitness and Wellness Association. The walks are suitable for all ages and all fitness levels. Check the Walking Schedule for future planning.
