Outdoor enthusiasts are drawn to the area for its exceptional hiking, cycling, and horseback riding trails; the Galloping Goose Regional Trail meanders through picturesque woodlands and open pastures, while the scenic bluffs of Witty’s Lagoon Regional Park beckon birdwatchers and families eager to explore tidal pools and waterfalls. In keeping with its strong agricultural roots, weekend farmers’ markets brim with fresh produce, artisanal cheeses, and locally made crafts.

Metchosin is also home to Pearson College UWC, an internationally renowned institution attracting students from dozens of countries, adding a global perspective to the tranquil environment.

Meanwhile, orchard cideries and family-run farms are dotted across the countryside, contributing to a farm-to-table culture that is as delicious as it is sustainable.
