  • Juan De Fuca Trail – Hiking/Backpacking Guide
    Juan de Fuca Trail – Hiking/Backpacking Guide By Candice Camera Brief Background of the JDF Trail The Juan de Fuca Trail is a located in Juan de Fuca Provincial Park on Vancouver Island. The 47KM trail goes from China Beach to Botanical Beach near Port Renfrew. How to Get There (from Vancouver via transit) From Vancouver, we took a Pacific Coach bus onto the ferry from Tsawassen to Swartz Bay. We then took the same bus into downtown Victoria. In order to access the JDF trailhead, we had to purchase a round trip ticket on a private shuttle bus from Downtown Victoria. The shuttle bus service we used was West Coast Trail Express. A rough cost estimate for shuttle bus transportation to the trail head is about $120 round trip per person. Once we we’re on the bus, it’s about an hour bus ride to China Beach, which is where we started our hike. The shuttle will drop you off on the side of the road and you’ll find the trailhead in the trees. Trail Facts/Map The terrain on the Juan de Fuca Trail is rugged and exceptionally muddy. Even though we hiked this trail in July, it rained for 2 out of the 4 days we were on the trail. The Juan de Fuca Trail is open May-September. We booked a backcountry trail permit about 2 weeks in advance, but the campsites are on a first-come first-served basis. You have to carry the trail permit with you. You can pitch a tent anywhere at the campsites, space isn’t typically an issue.
