Hemer Provincial Park, an easy drive south of Nanaimo is located on Holden Lake.
Holden Lake |
A set of trails, about 11 kilometres in total, takes walkers (and the occasional jogger, some horse-back riders, and plenty of pooches) along the shore of Holden Lake and through some marsh areas. The marsh areas are particularly interesting in the late spring as there's an abundance of flowers in bloom. The wild roses fill the air with a wonderful fragrance and the water Irises but on a great yellow show as visitors watch the numerous Trumpeter Swans on the marsh.
