11 Best Parks in Vancouver | Condé Nast Traveler

"Guelph isn't a large park, nor is it the loveliest in town. But "Dude Chilling Park," as it's known—yes, really—is without a doubt one of the most talked-about parks in Vancouver. In 1991, "Reclining Figure," a statue by Michael Dennis, was given a home in this East Van park. Though abstract, the figure—a dude—evoked the image of a person laying on his side, relaxing and, well, chilling. In 2012, things took a turn when the Guelph Park sign was quietly replaced with a very official-looking alternative that read “Dude Chilling Park.” But this was not an official renaming of the park; rather, it was a prank art installation by local artist Viktor Briestensky. The name stuck." - Guy Saddy

Guelph Park shares the space with Duke Chilling Park …Duke Chilling Park was first identified with a humorous flare and with community support, it was recognized as an official park space…this entire park is dog friendly, with a children’s playground and The Brewery Creek Community Garden which makes this park a very interesting community focused area..plenty of space to relax and view the wide range of activities …

A nice playground for youngsters with slides and a few swings. Tennis courts, too. Directly adjacent (east side) of Dude Chilling Park, just separated by a walkway. Centrally located. Next to Mt. Pleasant school which has a substantial playground area and fields.

It's also known as Dude Chilling bc of the former organic n original sculpture called dude chilling. It's now a long lasting copper sculpture. It's a moderate sized park, which hosts quite a few benches and picnic tables come late Spring or early Summer. It gets very well used when the weather is reliably warm n sunny. Also there's a community garden attached to the park tennis courts. It also has some great trees for shade. There once was an area for playing volleyball/badminton, but the Westside pole broke/rusted away n has yet to be replaced. IDK if there's any plans to. The last pole remaining has been delightfully knitbombed. It's also a park well used by dogs and their owners. I find it delightful to watch the dogs run around play fetch or with each other. Many of the owners seem to be mindful of people's preferences to not want dogs to greet them or otherwise. In any case, it's a good little park. Hope you decide to come n enjoy it

Guelph Park is an ideal place for morning exercise or an evening stroll. An open walkway in the centre of the park connects a tree-lined field and a recreation area with playground and tennis courts. Whether visiting the park to sit on a shaded bench or to play a game of tennis, Guelph is sure to be a pleasant retreat. The site was named Guelph Park on March 13, 1972, after the bounding street which in turn recognized the family name of Queen Victoria.

The park is super convenient and is such a great spot for a morning dog walk. Usually there are lots of dog owners in the morning so it’s a great time to socialise your pet. In fall the colours are spectacular. Only thing is recently homeless people have been occupying off to the side of the park.

Nice Park, near a Mall & Library. Out door washrooms, bench , garden area & lots of dogs. Biggest problem is Parking, many areas Free but good luck finding a spot.

Dude Chilling Park is honestly very chill. It’s extremely chilly in the winter, but in the summer it’s chill in a hotter way, lots of tanners. Plenty of chill dudes and girls if you are open minded and the dogs are super chill too. Just a chill spot honestly. They don’t have too much there, some grass and paths but to be real you don’t need much more than that to just hangout or have a picnic or something. I love dogs and there are dogs there all the time, they also have to be on a leash too which can get uncomfortable but you get used to it.

A neighborhood hub, this park is a classic place to enjoy an afternoon with friends, meeting place, enjoy some time getting to know your community garden and people in the area. With local food trucks stopping by, outdoor yoga classes and all kinds of activities this is the park to enjoy yourself with a taste of old Vancouver charm.
