Nanaimo River Hatchery

Fantastic place to sit and relax. Also very interesting to see the process.

We had an excellent walk here while driving up island. They could use a lot more signage but fun to see the fish.

Good place for a walk and taking pictures.

Good walking trails with a swimming hole to cool down in. We had a blast

Feb.9/2019. I had to go for a ride because of cabin fever in the Canadian winter.So with one eye closed and the other grinning at my wife.I planted my thumb on the map and off to the Hatchery we go.I need to come back in the summer time.No doubly its a interesting place. We noticed fairly good paths regardless with dusting of snow,of course you wouldn’t ware your best flip flops in the summer.Winter try better than running shoes for the root snakes that will anchor your foot throwing you off track.We found a cute light lake,frozen over but from what I read the ice surface was dotted with a few grey patches that I would not have walked out on. Play safe have fun.
