No trip to Hornby Island can be complete without a walk through Helliwell Provincial Park. John Helliwell donated the land for this park because he thought it was just too spectacular for the public not to have access to it. A well-maintained and relatively easy trail of ~5 km takes you through a diverse and spectacular landscape. If you go to the right, after you walk through a forest of firs and ferns, you come out to a grassy meadow and bluffs where you can look out across the water to Vancouver Island. The trail continues alongside forests of arbutus and Gerry oak trees (keep your eyes peeled for birds -we saw a bald eagle), down to the water with more fantastic views, then you enter the forest again to get back to the parking lot. Dogs are allowed on leashes (wouldn't want them dashing over a cliff!), no bikes or horses.

Loved the tranquility and friendliness of the "islanders". The accomodations were very good at Ford's cove and the staff excellent . It was a great place to stay and enjoy the beautiful scenery,water and waqlk the trails.

Helliwell is a really nice, easy 5 km loop walk around the water edge. Anyone can do it. We saw sea lions, birds, beautiful landscape. Would also be a great running trail.

Seals, if you're lucky. Lots of exploring at low tide. Great hiking, and some geocaches if you are into those. We liked it!

Great easy hike through both old growth forests and then along the bluffs looking out over the ocean. Bring a camera to capture the great sandstone caves and unique grasslands along the bluffs, edged by Arbutus and Gerry oak.

We took a hike of about 1.5 hours along the coastline. The weather was beautiful. There were so many things so see along the walk. There are cliffs to look out from and beaches to enjoy. The rock formations are great. Be sure to take your camera. There are benches along the route and a couple of outhouses.

If you make it to Hornby Island this hike is a must do.There is a nice mix of beautiful ocean views and old growth forest. It's an easy hike, suitable for all ages, and the trails are clearly marked. Make sure to bring some water, and a camera.

Cool hike through the forest trees and grasses, cutting along the coastline. There are a number of areas where you are asked to keep to the trail to protect the plant life along it. Very quiet when we were there. despite being a gorgeous day during Hornby Islands peak season, we probably only saw a dozen people as we walked along the trails.

Just make sure you take the walk to the cliffs and sit down and admire the views! Do not know where all the grasses came from but it was very unique in my adventures.
