Forest Hills is a community in New Westminster Land District, British Columbia, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Forest Hills is located at 49.3525°N, 123.0928°W.
Forest Hills rises as a verdant ascent upon the Pacific coast, tucked firmly into the slope of the Sentinel Hill. It lies 10.3 km north of Vancouver, BC (from Vancouver, BC: bearing 9°T), and is situated 15.0 km north-west of Burnaby. Here, the air holds a permanent, salt-tinged weight, and as the light wanes, the shadows stretch long and cool against the bark of the evergreens. The terrain follows the steep contours of the land, dropping toward the Capilano River, which carves a path through the earth with a steady, liquid persistence. While Capilano Lake rests 4 km away and Cypress Falls sits 10 km distant, the immediate presence of the Pacific defines the atmospheric pressure of the day, turning the evening mist into a soft, cooling shroud that clings to the hillside. Within the New Westminster Land District, Forest Hills retains a character defined by its proximity to the rugged, steep edges of the coast. The local economy and the pace of life remain quiet, favoring the deliberate movements of those who build their homes amidst the incline of the Sentinel Hill. The land bears the quiet influence of the Capilano River, a waterway that serves as both a physical boundary and a constant, low-frequency hum beneath the sounds of daily industry. Even the distant presence of Crescent Glacier, some 49 km away, seems to exert a cooling influence on the climate, ensuring the summers remain tempered and the winters persistent. Those who live in Forest Hills find their lives marked by the transition of the tides and the slow, heavy growth of the timber that originally drew people to this steep, coastal reach.
