Men's Walking Group

The weather has warmed up a bit this week.  Seven of us did about a 7 Km walk today.  We drove up Renfrew Rd and parked at the Kinsol Trestle parking lot.  From there we walked to  the Kinsol Trestle where we proceeded up the Koksilah River and followed te trail back to the Cowichan Valley Trail.  The map and photos tell the rest of the story.  --  DeNNis.

Parked at Kinsole Trestle parking lot (right center).  To the trestle, across and down underneath to the trail alongside the Koksilah River.  Back to the Cowichan Valley trail and return to the cars.
