Hiking Maps and Guides
Here are some great hikes and walks mostly in our South Shore area, but also some others further afield, that we have enjoyed.
These are provided for you to download and explore, but
Please Note the Following:
- These maps are not kept up to date. Sometimes features change due to coastal storms or logging operations.
- There is no certainty that all the hikes are passable or safe.
- Many of these hikes are over private land. In some cases we have asked the owner's permission to use a trail and have never been refused. In one case we were told we were welcome to hike provided nobody smoked (danger of fire). Most landowners want to keep atv's and other machines out.
- Please be very considerate of private landowners, so we can all continue to enjoy these trails in the future.
