(July 26, 2022, 6:02 am)I cycled over this trestle maybe 100 times and am still in awe. I remember the decision made to choose perhaps the most expensive option, that of rebuilding it as originally in wood (as opposed to simple steel beams etc) and how right that decision was. A great piece of history preserved along with a GREAT cycling or hiking trail. Well worth the journey to visit.

(July 22, 2022, 4:03 am)The hike to the bridge is a very short distance and very easy — flat and wide road. The bridge itself is well maintained, the views are beautiful, and the engineering is amazing. There are several pathways to the base of the bridge and you can choose which path you take according to your skill level. A must-see if you’re on Vancouver Island.

(July 12, 2022, 7:54 pm)Super easy walk, wide and smooth gravel trails. Nice views. Lots of family and kids around. The curvature of the trestle makes it a great place for photos. We came here after attempting the Old Baldy mountain hike and a sunny midday. There were lots of families and kids around. The paths are pretty well groomed and you can probably get by with somewhat fancy shoes (maybe not heels) and dress here if needed.

(July 11, 2022, 4:09 am)A great example of rehabilitation. A beautifully engineered trestle bridge.
This abandoned bridge which restored to the centerpiece of a great walking trail. Fantastic views of the gorge. A short walk (1 km) from the trail head parking lot to the bridge itself, and then a small scramble down some decent trails to river’s edge. The only negative were all the dog walkers on the trail - slightly distracting - and some motor bikes (which are prohibited). -
