There's multiple entrances into #CuthbertHolmesPark - which is directly connected to Colquitz River Park. This is my fave entrance because it takes you straight into the forest πππ² There's an unmarked entrance around the corner from here that also leads directly into forest & we exited from that trail.
These two nearby municipal parks are part of the Craigflower-Colquitz Watershed. There's estuary/bird & wildlife sanctuary areas in both parks. Lots of active rewilding projects happening year round in both parks too. Please keep your dogs on leash & out of nature restoration zones.

The main highlight of the Glendale trails is this massive pond. It attracts many different bird species that choose this sanctuary to live, mate, nest & raise their young at. You'll always see eagles flying above & ravens calling, when you walk the trails here.
The tiny white dot you see atop a mountain in the background is the astronomical centre of the universe here & it hosts astronomy related events at certain times of the year.

Glendale park has multiuse trails - most are suitable for people with limited mobility(very little elevation grade & paths are wide enough), strollers friendly, bicycles friendly(go slow!), kids & equestrians use it often too. The trails border along rural private & public greenspace/forested lands. This side trail is the Dog Walker's Loop & winds through the forest - fab to take your dog friends there.
The main trail connects to the Saanich trails system which also connects to the Galloping Goose trail system.
