Massive trees, majestic waterfalls, a meandering river that meets the sea, flowers, birds and fascinating fish are but a few of the attractions that draw people to Goldstream Provincial Park, a mere 16 km from downtown Victoria on southern Vancouver Island. From October to December we are lucky enough to experience the salmon run and on occasion have seen a bear happily catching fish from the stream.

Located in Goldstream Provincial Park, the hike to Mount Finlayson is one of the steepest hikes as it climbs up and offers scenic views looking south towards the Langford area. The route is a popular exercise trail and can be busy on weekends, however the views from the top on a clear day are spectacular and worth the hard work of getting there.

여행 팁

Clothing
Victoria has some unpredictable weather so best to wear layers. It can be cool one moment with rain on the horizon, warm and sunny the next moment. I find it cooler along the ocean as there is a breeze. Comfortable footwear is essential as there are many wonderful trails with various terrain to explore.
