Highlands blends forested acreage living with quick access to city amenities, offering a peaceful, park-rich lifestyle just north of the region’s urban core. Trails crisscross the community, and lakes, rocky bluffs, and Garry oak meadows set the backdrop for everyday life. Shops, restaurants, and services in nearby Langford, Saanich, and Victoria are a short drive, while local governance and community updates come through the District at the District of Highlands.
Outdoor time is practically a daily habit here. Hike coastal viewpoints in Gowlland Tod Provincial Park, tackle the multi-summit network at Mount Work Regional Park, or enjoy a sunset picnic atop Lone Tree Hill Regional Park. In summer, swims and paddles at Thetis Lake Regional Park are a local rite of passage, while golfers gravitate to Bear Mountain Golf just over the municipal boundary.
Families appreciate that Highlands is served by School District 62 (Sooke), with well-regarded elementary and secondary options in adjacent communities. Community spirit runs deep, showcased at heritage gatherings and seasonal events at Caleb Pike Heritage Park and the Highlands Community Hall.
