The 34 km long Cowichan Lake is a major landmark on the Pacific Marine Circle Route, a 250 km touring route connecting Cowichan in the east to Port Renfrew and Sooke in the west, featuring spectacular mountain, river and ocean scenery. This lakeside town and its dramatic surroundings are a premier vacation destination for families, outdoors lovers and freshwater sports enthusiasts.
Called the fly-fishing capital of Canada, the town is the western terminus for the Trans Canada Trail. The Cowichan Lake Sports Arena provides ice hockey and curling, and there are baseball and soccer fields and a walking trail. Water ski, or rent a houseboat and experience leisurely life on the water. The Heritage Cowichan River, which originates at the lake, offers excellent whitewater kayaking, and is a popular destination for tubing in the summer.
