3 Page 3 of 8 If you are coming from Birds of a Feather B&B make your way to the beach, following the map (right) or directions from your hosts. You are crossing a new apartment and townhouse development to its south-east corner. From a parking area, a gravel trail leads through the green space to a side street, which takes you to Lagoon Road. Go down to the beach and turn right, or south. Walk to the end of the road.

(Photo 1). It s easier than walking on the beach. Then walk on the gravel beach (photo 2). You are walking below a former rock and gravel quarry dating back to the mid-1800 s. This was one of the Vancouver Portland Cement Company s sites; the now famous Butchart Gardens is another. It is said that much of Seattle was built with stones from here. Operations ceased within the past decade. The site has been reclaimed and is turning into a subdivision, with beach access for residents. Leave the beach when you get to Albert Head Lagoon. Continue on Park Drive next map. Park Drive Albert Head Lagoon 200 m 1:18,055 Scale M 0.4 MI

Go around the waterfalls; ignore the trail leading to the interpretive centre and parking lot. Follow the Beach Trail downhill, around the lagoon, and on to the sandy beach. Walk south along the beach (to your right when facing the open water), past the washrooms (in a small building with a green roof). This takes you just outside the park boundaries. Do not walk up the paved driveway (there is a Private sign.) Continue 50 m/200 ft along the beach and look along the tree line for wooden stairs. See photo. They can be difficult to see at first; stay close to the trees. The stairs take you into the parking lot at the end of Witty Beach Road. Wit s End Retreat is located at the top off the stairs: Stay on the right side of the parking lot. Look for the gate to the right of the two big trees in the parking lot: number 517. To continue to the Village of Metchosin, walk to the end of Witty Beach Road.

6 Page 6 of 8 Turn left on Metchosin Road (there is a footpath along the road on your left, part of the way), pass the historic church and cemetery, and continue to the corner of Metchosin & Happy Valley Roads. From Witty s Lagoon To Metchosin Village via Hillman Trail km; 30 min. Please see map next page. This route takes you first past a golf course which offers refreshments. Then, walk along a bucolic meadow trail. Expect noisy dogs behind a fence, baby sheep and old-growth trees along a creek. Option 2 From Sitting Lady Falls, follow the signs to the main park entrance and nature centre. Cross the parking lot. Directly across the street is the golf course and club house, which serves refreshments. Walk a few steps to your right along Metchosin Road Then turn immediately left onto Pears Road. Walk along Pears Road for 400 metres, to the end of the golf course. Turn left onto Hillman Trail (see photo); you will see a sign as soon as you are on the trail. Follow the trail, which becomes Hillman Road, for 1 km. At the road intersection, turn left on Happy Valley Road. Cross the road to walk on the footpath along Happy Valley. You are passing the cafés, shop etc. In Metchosin My-Chosen Cafe serves country fare. It s famous for its burgers and its fresh salads make a full meal in themselves. The Sugar Shack is in the same building as My Chosen Cafe. It serves delectable sweets, but also has light lunches, such as quiche, and it is open into the evening. My-Chosen Pizza, (250) , located at the back of My-Chosen Cafe, offers madefrom-scratch pizzas for take out or delivery to your B&B, pasta dishes and salads are also available. Gluten free and vegetarian options are accommodated. The Broken Paddle Café is the local café and is great for snacks and lunch. It closes around 4 pm and is closed on Saturdays. Located in the row of shops east of My Chosen Cafe. Metchosin Country Store across the street has basic fresh foods, as well as products from the Galloping Goose Sausage Company. The Schoolhouse Museum and the Farm Museum bear witness to the area s history and is definitely worth a visit. It is run by volunteers and only open on Saturday afternoons and Sundays.
