45 km · Full dayEasyCalm streets, some sharingMostly paved

The Saanich Centennial Trails knit the municipality's greenways into rides of 1 to 45 km: the Colquitz River's salmon stream, Elk Lake's loop, the old Interurban rail grade, and connecting corridors between parks. Flat, quiet, family-friendly riding with good birdwatching, all inside the capital region.
