Very popular hiking area. Great exercise to run up Mt. Work. Well marked trails and lots of people make this a safe fun easy place to explore the outdoors.
Not that bad of a walk with the kids. Opens up to a nice secluded bay!
Really nice park, the hike to the top is definitely "work" and takes about 45 min, but very much worth the view at the top. Lots of other great trails nearby as well.
Mount Work is one of the largest regional parks, and is the dominant hill on the horizon from many vantage points in Saanich, Victoria and the Saanich Peninsula. This popular recreation spot offers a variety of landscapes and activities.
