From Lake Cowichan, this 123 km mixed-surface ride crosses to Port Renfrew and back through some of the island's most storied country: ancient forest, crystal-clear rivers, and long quiet logging-road stretches. About 3,200 m of climbing and remote in the middle, so carry what you need. The tall trees are not a figure of speech.
