Walking Dallas Road in Victoria
Winding along the southern end of Victoria, and along the edge of the Strait of Juan de Fuca - and about 3 km from the Mermaid Suite vacation condo - is Dallas Road.
It is a marvelous and scenic walking promenade of 2.5 kms length between Holland Point (A below) and Clover Point (B) - that's a 30-40 minute walk in one direction . There are intermittent parking spots along the route. Dallas Road goes much farther in both directions, but that is its best part. Just park and stroll. Here you can...
If you suddenly are famished, amble up Cook Street a few blocks to the Cook Street Village shops. Try the Beagle Pub, or instead, head further west on Dallas Road to Odgen Point, a bit past Holland Point Park, and have a bite at the Ogden Point Cafe. It's on the oceanfront where maybe you'll see a cruise ship in port. |
