Explore Hatley Park National Historic site, home to Royal Roads University, and create memories to last a lifetime. While Hatley Castle is the centrepiece of the estate, there’s much more to experience: gorgeous Japanese, Italian, and Rose formal gardens that follow Edwardian design; 15km of walking and hiking trails through old growth forest; a protected migratory bird sanctuary; an historic First Nations’ site; and a spectacular view of the Olympic Mountains across the Juan de Fuca Strait. You’ll find everything that makes the West Coast unforgettable only 20 minutes from downtown Victoria.
