MATHESON LAKE REGIONAL PARK
Matheson Lake Park Vancouver Island BC

Excellent swimming and fishing, trail incircles the entire Lake. Lots of nice winding trails and board walks on the north side of the lake, which meet up with the Galloping Goose Regional Trail in several places. South side of the lake is a much steeper and rougher climb.
