Swimming Spot and Wild Campsite at the River

Highlight • River

Great for swimming and with the option of wild camping. Directly above the water between bushes and trees. Good privacy and very quiet after 7 p.m. It is also tolerated. There are no no camping signs either.

Highlight • Rest Area

Good spot to get some shelter from the rain or picnic, if not booked by a group. It has outhouses and you can access the road from main trail before …

66 Mile Trestle

Highlight • Bridge

After the Kinsol Trestle probably the most beautiful bridge on the Cowichan Valley Trail. Very nice view of the stream - and you may even see people who are not on the trail!
