It's a must visit if you are travel this area.
An old growth fir forest in just a few steps away. The new boardwalks offer visitor a much easy way for walking.
I remember I got all my shoes wet after the walk years ago.
Now the park separates into 2 parts. You don't have to cross the highway again. Actually, both sides of the walk is quite the same.
We walk the new part boardwalk in the morning then I head to Port Alberni then we walk the old part on the way back to Parksville.
Parking is still a problem so try to go there in the morning.
We can learn many things about our old growth forest in this park.

If you never been to this new mall, you should visit there.
The buildings and the high rises around the mall look entire different than before.
The food court is nice with good seating environment. The food court has many different choices for all.
The plaza outside the mall is a really nice spot especially in summer. They offered free concerts last year.
Many restaurants are in the plaza. The younger people like it for sure. Check it out in warm days.
The live music concerts are back on July 6, 2024. It will not last for long. Please check their website.
