The Sooke region is only an easy 30-40 minute drive from downtown Victoria, B.C.  Our guests at Markham House Bed and Breakfast, continually comment on the wonderful outdoor activities available in our area.  Hiking in East Sooke Park is a must--one of the finest marine trails on Vancouver Island. To be able to travel west to Botanical Beach at low tide is a treat--the acres of tidal pools are filled with sea life. 

Many of our slightly more adventurous guests try out the zip line , Adrenaline, in the hills of North Sooke--just behind the historic 17 mile pub--a great place to refresh after an exhilarating 2 hour wilderness experience. 

Last week, some guests returned, agog, after their 3 hour Zodiac marine eco tour in the Strait of Juan de Fuca. 

If one likes the outdoors, Winter or Summer, The Sooke Region is truly a premier place to visit.  Our guests say it is so.
