Visit Beacon Hill Park

Beacon Hill Park, which is green and well-kept, is a popular outdoor space near the city center. Beautiful views across Juan de Fuca Strait to the snow-capped peaks of the Olympic Peninsula may be seen from the top.

Huge trees, gardens, and ponds may be seen throughout the park. Walking trails make their way around the park, offering quiet benches and rest places. You may see a variety of species here, including deer, peacocks, ducks, and even an otter. Paths also lead to high points with panoramic views of the ocean and mountains. Baseball, tennis, cricket, and lawn bowling are among the other activities available at the park. Summer fun for kids is provided by two water parks. Mile 0, a landmark on the park's southwest edge, marks the western end of the continent-spanning Trans-Canada Highway. A monument of Terry Fox, who attempted to run across Canada to raise money for cancer research in 1980, is nearby.
