Walking Tours and Trails
Victoria’s city layout is ideal for walking. Strolling the Inner Harbour, sightseeing on foot and discovering the city’s colourful history are encouraged. Heritage buildings, flower baskets hanging from lampposts and ocean and mountain views entice visitors down cobblestone sidewalks and pedestrian-friendly walkways.
Follow a local historian, architect or English "Bobby" on a guided walking tour. These storytellers will uncover Victoria’s Olde Towne and other historical areas. Truly discover Victoria’s past on a ghost walk or cemetery tour. Pick up a city map and venture away from the downtown core into Victoria’s neighbourhoods: charming communities unto themselves.
To experience Victoria and Vancouver Island’s natural surroundings, follow one of several walking trails through lush rainforests, rolling farmland or along rugged coastline. Visit any Capital Regional District (CRD) Park or BC Provincial Park for a rewarding nature walk along well-maintained and scenic trails.
