3 Best Day Trips From Vancouver | Condé Nast Traveler
"At Mount Maxwell Provincial Park, you can drive—or, if you’re uber-fit, walk—up a rustic, potholed road and twisty hills for stupendous views of Vancouver Island and the start of some wonderful hiking trails. If you’re driving up and down the mountain, allow about 20 minutes each way. Then, depending on how much hiking you want to do at the top, budget another one to three hours. Don't miss the viewpoint at the top of Mount Maxwell—Baynes Peak, Salt Spring's highest point—for amazing vistas, not only of Vancouver Island, but also south to the San Juan Islands." - Liz Humphreys
