Langford Secures Lakepoint Park Forever | Vancouver News

Langford just locked in a major win for its residents and wildlife—officially taking ownership of Lakepoint Park and 40 acres of woodland trails, including the beloved Gravity Zone. This permanent transfer ensures these cherished public spaces stay open and protected from development, while also adding over 650 meters of new shoreline access, a swimming platform, and a direct link to the Ed Nixon Trail. Beyond recreation, the land is vital habitat for endangered Western Painted Turtles, whose nesting success has been boosted by Westhills’ prior restoration efforts—including the creation of Turtle Island. With this move, Langford now owns half of Langford Lake’s shoreline, thanks to Westhills’ generous gift of 100+ acres—a pattern of environmental stewardship that continues to shape Langford as a green, outdoor-loving community.
