Pacific Spirit South

Pacific Spirit Park is a coastal rainforest typical of the Pacific North West. As you wander through these trails, you'll see countless huge trees and be amazed by the variety of mosses and lichen you find hanging from the branches. If you're lucky, you might even see a garter snake (small and harmless).

In the south loop in particular, there are a huge network of trails which can be linked up to make a trail as short or as long as youd like. the suggested route links up the four corners of the southern area in a 7km loop which will take you between 2 and 3 hours, with time for nature appreciation and dog stroking. The trails in the southern part of the park are generally accessible and welcoming of dogs. See signage at each park entrance, or at the suggested trailhead at Imperial and 29th for detailed information when you arrive.

The trail: Well-signed, marked or frequent on trail maps. Always carry a map. Phone signal in BC is not reliable when hiking. Always carry an OFFLINE map. I recommend and use AllTrails+ and Gaia Maps.
