Hiking Vancouver Island in January

by site editor Rick McCharles

The BEST thing about coastal Vancouver Island āž™ we can hike and cycle year round.

As I post in January, we’ve yet to have any snow in Parksville.

This YouTube was shot on iPhone 16 Pro in vertical. In and around Qualicum Beach.

Most of the clips were shot in the Heritage Forest, a 50-acre pocket of old growth coastalĀ Douglas fir,Ā western red cedar,Ā grand fir,Ā Sitka spruce, andĀ hemlock.

Personally, the many wildly varied stumps I found most photogenic.
