Mystic Vale, behind UVic off Gordon Head Rd
More infoTucked behind the University of Victoria, Mystic Vale is a Douglas-fir ravine where Hobbs Creek murmurs below rooty footbridges and sword ferns filter the light to an unreasonably good green. Local legend claims the spring water is magical, which is exactly the sort of thing to mention casually and watch whether your date plays along. Short, shaded, cool on a hot day. Bring decent shoes.
