3About View Royal, BC

Most trips here are quick local hops from Esquimalt, Colwood, or Langford, all under 10 km, though the Colwood Crawl can slow things down at rush hour. Folks coming from further up-island usually roll in via Highway 1 or off the Swartz Bay ferry. EV chargers are easy to find along the Island Highway corridor. Worth knowing: the Craigflower Schoolhouse here, built in 1855, is the oldest standing school building in western Canada.
