This program runs from March - June on Fridays from 1:30PM - 4PM. The cost to join is only $2.00, with the exception of our Englishman River Falls adventure - costing $10.00 due to the extended duration of the hike (overall time). Please sign up in advance.
Cable Bay Trail This well-maintained trail begins just north of Barnes Road and winds its way through the forest to the coast, where views of Gabriola Island and seaside exploration await. Although steep in some sections, it’s suitable for hikers of all skill levels. Fun Fact: For reasons unknown, dozens of toy dinosaurs have been scattered throughout the trail, making for a fun mid-hike scavenger hunt.
Trip Includes: Transportation to and from the hike and a guided hike on one of Nanaimo's trails.
