Land OwnerMunicipality of Saanich
Colquitz River Trail is part of the Municipality of Saanich trail network.
This is a scenic mixed terrain multi-use path that is used to avoid the road network.
Use this trail to link the Galloping Goose to the Glendale trail and continue to Hartland MTB Park. A great trail for those on Touring/Gravel bikes to link to the Royal Oak Trail and then onto the Lochside trail.
One section is liable to flooding in sustained heavy rain. The municipality are quick to sort this and provide regular repairs on the trail
