Historical wooden train bridge turned into a beautiful walking trail with stunning views. Definitely a must see.

Not too far of a walk. Great place for photos. Take a picnic lunch and a towel and put your feet in the river.

The Kinsol Trestle is one of the tallest free-standing and most spectacular timber rail trestle structures in the world. At 187 metres in length and standing 44 metres above the salmon bearing Koksilah River, the Kinsol is an incredible structure. It is a MUST see on the Island. It is 35 minutes drive from our farm.

They are also often referred to as “trestle bridges”, although in most cases the bridge part is redundant. This particular trestle is 187 metres long and stands 44 metres high, passing over the Koksilah River. It is one of 8 trestles on the Cowichan Valley Trail route but is by far the biggest and most impressive. Its 7-degree curve is unusual and represents an amazing feat of engineering, with the beams initially numbered and put together like a jigsaw puzzle.
