Greater Victoria Neighbourhoods – Highlands

The Highlands encompass much of the unparalleled beauty of the west coast forest and seaside. Avid hikers will love Gowlland Todd Provincial Park’s 25 kilometers of trails, spectacular views and natural flora and fauna across the east side of Saanich Inlet.

This natural area is rich in biodiversity and it protects dry coastal Douglas fir, grassy meadows, alders and old-growth forest. It’s also a wetland area protecting species of rare plants and animals. Hikers will especially enjoy spring and summer when small rivers and waterfalls feed the verdant green and rocky knolls break out in splendid arrays of wildflowers.

The serene Todd Inlet is a favourite place for boaters wanting calm, sheltered anchorage. The abundant marine life also attracts scuba divers from around the world.

The pace is slower and more relaxed here. When you purchase a home in the Highlands, you will enjoy a peaceful stillness surrounded by west coast forests.
