Goldstream Provincial Park

Goldstream Provincial Park extends over 475 hectares of temperate rainforest with ancient Douglas fir trees, waterfalls, and salmon-spawning streams near Victoria, British Columbia.

The Victoria Water Board gifted this land to British Columbia in 1958, leading to the establishment of the park, with additional expansions in 1994 and 1996.

The Freeman King Visitor Centre provides educational programs about local wildlife, including detailed information about the salmon runs and eagle migrations throughout the year.

The park maintains year-round campsites with both reservation options and first-come-first-served spots, plus numerous hiking trails ranging from valley floors to mountain ridges.

Between October and December, thousands of Chum Salmon return to Goldstream River, followed by one of Canada's largest gatherings of Bald Eagles from December to February.
