Ucluelet Wild Pacific Trail III

Ucluelet Wild Pacific Trail III: Oyster Jim Section

Hiking the Wild Pacific Trail – The Gem of Ucluelet’s Western Coastline

Welcome to the Wild Pacific Trail where you will find stunning vistas over the open Pacific Ocean while hiking along a wide trail through west coast rain forest. We call this section the “Oyster Jim” Section, yeah it’s just us.

This part of the Ucluelet Wild Pacific Trail showcases old-growth forest including massive Sitka Spruce, Red dear and Western Hemlock. Keep your eyes open for some pretty big trees! Included in your hike along this part of the trail is a rocky shoreline that offers beautiful views of west coast rugged coastline and spectacular crashing waves during sort-watching season. We like to think of them as liquid fireworks.

Directions & Parking
Drive from Tofino towards Ucluelet. Past the junction the highway becomes Peninsula Road. The address of the trail is around 2088 but watch for the signs. Think there’s a small parking area there and there are bike racks. The trail head is before you reach Ucluelet so keep and eye out for those signs. Or drive right into Ucluelet and ride your bike out to the trailhead on the paved bike path. The bke path is paved and we call it a MUP – Multi-User Path. So bike, walk, skate or rock and roll on out!

Difficulty is 2/5. The paths are wide and mostly level with some inclines.
