Government Road is an established residential neighbourhood of townhouses, condos and larger single family homes, many of them custom built. It is bounded by Lougheed Highway on the north and Burnaby Lake to the south, between Gaglardi Way in the east and Sperling Avenue to the west.<\/p>\n

Neighbourhood amenities<\/h4>\n

The Government Road neighbourhood is located between Burnaby\u2019s two large regional parks, the Burnaby Mountain Conservation Area<\/a> and Burnaby Lake Regional Park. Both offer extensive networks of trails and magnificent viewpoints.
\nBurnaby Mountain is Metro Vancouver\u2019s highest point south of the Burrard Inlet and is a lure for nature lovers, hikers and mountain bikers to escape the city only a few short minutes after parking the car. They are quickly rewarded with expansive views all the way to Vancouver Island and up Indian Arm to the Coast Mountains.
\nBurnaby Mountain Park, just below the summit, is literally a playground of the gods. That\u2019s the name of the collection of wooden totems presented to the city by Japanese sculptors  Nuburi and Shusei Toko to commemorate Burnaby\u2019s friendship with the Japanese city of Kobi. The park also features a rose garden and the renowned Horizons restaurant.
\nBurnaby Lake Regional Park surrounds a large urban lake that is a habitat for eagles, herons, ducks, beavers and turtles. It\u2019s also a competitive rowing basin and recreational hub with numerous sports fields, two ice arena, an indoor swimming pool, tennis courts and even an archery range at its western end.
\nWhile there is some commercial retail along Winston Street, the neighbourhood is close to the booming Lougheed Town Centre area with its 125-store mall as well as numerous shops and services along North Road.<\/p>\n
