Exceptional article. I was a roadrunner until moving to Galiano last year as a full time resident and joined a few locals for trail running. I LOVE the beautiful trails and combination trail/road runs we’ve been doing not to mention ALL the other features of this little Paradise Island. Btw….check out our upcoming Walk/Run event on Sunday Sept 25 starting at the North Hall with distances of 1km dash 5km and 10km all in support of raising funds for our treasured Galiano Health Care Centre .

Hi Shirley - Wondering if you can recommend any esp. favorite trails for running? I'm planning a trip in early April and would like to plan a few 10-25km outings. Appreciate your thoughts.
On the to do list! Islands and trails are my favorite places to run. I’ve got many options here on the other coast, including trails on islands only accessible by boat, which in my case, is my trusty sea kayak. A new twist on a duathlon.
OMG! This place is amazing. I just showed my husband and said "This is our next trip!!" TRAILS!! These pictures are gorgeous. Thank you so much for sharing and all the great accommodations.
That's an amazing thing to read Julie, I love it! I wish you all the best in your training in the meantime and please reach out at any point if you have any questions about the island!

Thanks in advance, Kent
Thank you for the kind words Shirley and for letting me know about the Galiano Walk/Run! I will absolutely mention it :)
I'm sure you're finding new trails all the time over there, I hope you continue to fall more and more in love with them all!

That sounds amazing Amie! Very cool you can paddle and have a little paradise to yourself :)
Galiano will not disappoint if you ever make it out this way, I promise that!
