Mile 0 monument was erected by the Victoria Auto Club in 1958 and maintained by the British Columbia Automobile Association (BCAA)
Great spot with beautiful ocean views and a peaceful park. Start of the Trans-Canada Highway, the highway that goes all the way across Canada!
Mile 0 Monument in Victoria, BC, is a must-see landmark marking the start of the Trans-Canada Highway. The monument is beautifully situated in a scenic park, offering a great spot for photos and a moment of reflection on the historic significance of this highway. It's a perfect place to begin a cross-country journey or just to appreciate a piece of Canadian history. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Victoria!
We have heard so many stories about him, but when we first came to his start line, Istill a little excited.
One of those spots to say "Been there"!
And I'm so glad I did! It was a nice little spot, but the view... my goodness, the view was amazing!

There's a pretty unique water park thing right next to this monument, along with a huge gravel field and a wonderful 152 acre park with lots of water features and a playground! Also a fantastic view of the water and Port Angeles
This place is great with the Terry Fox Statue as well; also can see the big ocean.
Along the shoreline, can have relax breeze of winds, that makes so much relaxing and comfortable!
The Mile Zero is the west of Canada starting point of Terry Fox Marathon!
It is so memorable which we can take pictures in front of the "MILE ZERO" sign and the statue of Terry Fox here!

It was fun visiting. There were a few plaques which explained some of the history of the monument. Nearby there was also a Terry Fox monument with an explanation of what he did. Near the coast there is a nice beach. I was able to walk along the beach while climbing rocks, and eventually there was a path leading upward. You must be relatively fit in order to explore the entire beach, as the beach consists of "sandy" areas, with frequent stretches of huge rocky (almost mountain like) terrain. There is also a more conventional paved path above the beach. I didn't walk too far along this path but you'll find more people and benches overlooking the beach.
