The naturally flowing, cool mountain water of the Sooke River carves out the unique “potholes” swimming area, miles away from the crowds and the city life. This is the starting point of a self-guided cycling adventure that will take you through the wilderness of the Sooke Hills, down the mountain to the Sooke Harbour basin, through beautiful Roche Cove, serene Matheson Lake and along several kilometers of rolling country farmlands above the beaches that surround idyllic Metchosin. Stopping for photographs and simply being “out there” is what this tour is all about. From the mountains to the seashore, enjoy a day on the trails Victoria’s West Shore locals have come to treasure and love.

All package rates include: helmet, top quality hybrid style bicycles; water bottle, map, and transportation to the site (one-way only)

All riders will meet and register at 10:00 a.m. at the office of CycleTreks/ Great Pacific Adventures located at 1000 Wharf Street.
