Welcome to ParksGOvi

No matter where you travel and which way you turn on Vancouver Island, there will always be a provincial park nearby.

The rugged coastal wilderness of Cape Scott guards our northern shores, while the Pacific Ocean waves collide with the island's west coast in the Pacific Rim National Park.

Carmanah Walbran protects vast old-growth forest in the secluded valleys to the south while the serene and sunny Gulf Islands cradle dozens of Marine Parks.
Vancouver Island boasts over a 100 government-designated parks, dominated by world-renowned Strathcona Provincial Park - the mighty backbone of Vancouver Island. Tranquil, glittering lakes attract boats and floatplanes; hikers embark along the most scenic trek on earth (West Coast Trail); kayakers explore the magnificent Broken Group Islands; cameras capture the peeling red bark of the Arbutus; and naturalists marvel at the tallest trees in Canada. Campers have replaced fur traders, and whale watchers have replaced whale hunters, as visitors to Vancouver Island find solitude, recreation and inspiration in a glorious abundance of parks, forests and oceans.

This site is meant to be an interactive gateway to the many beautiful recreation and cultural destinations on Vancouver Island. This site is empowered by ParksGO software, it provides all the tools to search for a place of interest through its dynamic online database, or just zoom and pan around our interactive mapping.

ParksGOvi is currently working with communities on the island to provide information for municipal parks, look for your community.. <enter ParksGOvi>
