Golden Ears Provincial Park

March, 2022

Golden Ears Provincial Park, located in beautiful British Columbia, is named after the prominent twin peaks which are commonly referred to as Golden Ears (Mount Blanshard). The park’s southern end is located on the northern edge of the district municipality of Maple Ridge on the north side of the Fraser River.

The park was originally part of Garibaldi Provincial Park (established 1927) but was split off as a separate park in 1967.

The park is often used for hiking, horseback riding, camping, and boating. It has also been widely used as a filming location for movies such as: First Blood (1982, starring Sylvester Stallone as Rambo); Twilight (2008, starring Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart); Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (2014); and Godzilla (2014) shot a scene on North Beach in the park.
