    Francis/King Regional Park (Saanich)

    Ever wondered what a bear's perspective of a park might be? Take part in a self-guided walk along the accessible Elsie King Trail to discover what bears need to survive (just the bear necessities!) and what keeps them busy at this time of year. Follow up your forest wander by warming up inside the Nature Centre and visiting with a CRD Regional Parks naturalist. Bring your own hot beverage to enjoy while you explore!

    Meeting place: The Francis/King Nature Centre off Munn Road.

    Trail description: 800m total distance. Compact surface trail with exposed tree roots. Majority of walk on gravel compact trail. May be muddy after rain events. One bench on route. Accessible washroom available near the parking lot. Wheelchair accessible and stroller friendly.

    Please note: We like pets too. However, their presence can be disruptive for some folks. If you plan to attend one of our programs, please leave pets at home. Guide and service animals are, of course, welcome.
