Sunday Morning Hike: Mt. Wells 7Km Loop!

Start your Sunday with a loop up Mt Wells. It will be a approximately 7KM with 225m of elevation gain. We will meet at the Mt. Wells Regional Park Parking lot at 9:00 am. Please note: there are two parking lots close to each other- the Mt Wells Regional Park Parking lot has toilets and a trail head sign. The closest address is 3059 Humpback Rd. We will begin the first part of the hike on the road and then access Mt. Wells regional Park through Raven View park where we will begin to explore the trails behind Mt. Wells. We will ascend Mt. Wells from the back side to enjoy the panoramic view of Langford and beyond before returning back. This hike is shorter than my usual planned hikes allowing us to finish before 12pm, but come prepared for hills that will test your cardio as well as rocky steep sections descending back to the parking lot.

Please bring suitable footwear, fluids, snacks as necessary and come prepared for the weather.

If anyone wants to car pool let me know in the discussion for possible pick up at Saanich Municipal Hall.
