Twigs, Trails, Ales and Tall Tales

Immerse yourself in the heart of a true West Coast wonderland on this invigorating hike. Towering trees and rugged rock formations frame the path. The trail, though technical at times, offers a rewarding journey through diverse terrain, keeping hikers engaged and energized.

During the summer months, the forest comes alive with vibrant greenery and the soothing sounds of nature. Sunlight filters through the dense canopy, casting dappled patterns along the trail. As an option, hikers can take part in a “forest retreat”—a moment of reflection to fully absorb the magic of the surroundings. Whether moving steadily along the trail or pausing to connect with the serenity of the wilderness, this hike provides a truly immersive outdoor experience.

After your invigorating hike, be whisked away to a historic local pub, renowned for some of the best craft beer on Vancouver Island. Enjoy delicious light fare, a refreshing pint, and connect with fellow hikers, sharing stories and laughter.
