I couldn't believe it when I was one of the few people who was walking through this extremely amazing and unique bog trail. Everyone else was probably spending their time whale watching, beachcombing, or kayaking. Just think about it, who the heck would even imagine a bog in a wet and rainy place like Tofino?
Shorepine Bog Trail is part of Pacific Rim National Park, so expect good things. The entire trail is made of a wooden boardwalk and it's circles around a 800 metre loop. Once I hit the trail, I was awed by the "Out of Africa" landscape. My brain was like, woah, where are the lions, tigers, and giraffes? Unfortunately, the only animals that roam this trail are cougars and bears and they were plenty of warning signs.
While I was walking the boardwalk, I was surrounded by dwarfed and twisted trees. They were like big bonzai trees and my head was just spinning with confusion. I wasn't prepared to see anything like it in Tofino. Luckily, there were enough green covered trees and plants to make this trail very photo friendly.
This trail is a GEM!Listed in: Underrated destinations in…
