Best Nature Preserve in British Columbia reviews

Wonderfully laid out with clean trails and picnic tables.
Great for a stroll or hike

I like taking my daughter there but they are discouraging feeding the wildlife, which is the whole reason we go there and alot of people do, I understand a bit but it is ducks birds and squirrels it's not like we are feeding bears and cougars

Nice park for kids to play, hike and spend time by the river! Lots of rocks to throw in the river and release energy scenery views for Mount Baker and other mountains

Kanaka is one of my regular go to locations to recharge my batteries in nature. Clean air calm trails. Be aware there is wildlife in the area but it's safe and absolutely gorgeous almost any time of the year. Picnic benches and park benches...

Went metal detecting. Fun but didn't find anything. LOL. This is a very lovely park with lots of trail options. Great for a run or walk. Beautiful views. Picnic areas and covered area.

First time to walk this park, a really lovely path through trees and then a really long, straight stretch back to the parking lot. Might do it the other way around next time. 1.5 hrs to walk 3.9 km, but I think there was a path in the middle I could...

Favourite place to walk, lots of different trails - the gnome homes are a blast to look for as a kid!

Be nice walking in the summer/fall months. Very flat and easy, but a little short, with a little over 2 kliks

Beautiful old growth cedar in here amongst a nice quiet river side walk.

Swan Lake, nestled in the heart Greater Victoria, , is a hidden gem renowned for its tranquility and natural beauty. Away from the bustling crowds, this serene oasis offers a peaceful escape with its scenic walking trail. As you wander around the...

Very nice easy trails with many picturesque spots to stop along the way.

Best staff, going above and beyond to allow me to enjoy this delicate and beautiful ecosystem. They had a shaded deck I could leave my dog and let me tell you just. He's a handful. I am so grateful for that experience and for all that they do there...

This is a wonderful park that has a mostly flat walk. It has wide paths and is a leisurely 30 minute walk. There are benches for resting and public washrooms. There is also a parking lot. There are lots of trees that have been planted by the previous...

This spot is genuinely a hidden gem, offering an incredible hike suitable for family outings and dog walks. However, locating a parking area was a challenge, and the waterfall appeared nearly dry.

This is such a neat spot for a walk. You are right in the city, and feel far away. The new board walks and gravol have been a wonderful upgrade, and there are so many animals in the area. We saw Swans, Ducks, Martin, Deer, and a Hawk. The walk takes...

Worth a quick stop for a look, but don't go out of your way. It was worth it for the anecdotal graffiti about Trudeau.

Beautiful views! Easy trail for all. Bring a hat, some none shaded sections. If your a birdwatcher it's great for that.

Well maintained, safe and huge area to let the dog off leash. Just be aware the park opens up to the open roads while going west so make sure to have the dog doesn’t wander onto the road
