JUAN DE FUCA TRAIL | 5-Day Backpacking | MUST-DO Coastal Hikes in Vancouver Island

Juan de Fuca Trail is located within the Juan de Fuca Provincial Park along the southwestern coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia. It covers 47 kilometres of rugged coastal trails and dense forest which stretches from China Beach to Botanical Beach. It offers panoramic views of the Olympic peninsula and mountains, Juan de Fuca strait, and diverse marine flora and fauna.

We did this as a 5-day backpacking. Sharing our itinerary along with the chapters in the video:
