Outdoor activities are abundant throughout the West Shore. Hiking, biking, swimming, fishing, and golfing all vie with team sports such as soccer and baseball for popularity, several being year round activities. Eleven parks cover nearly 2000 hectares and provide a myriad of hiking trails from simple nature walks along the shore to challenging day hikes. The Galloping Goose Trail, a 60 km former rail line, is a linear park running from downtown Victoria, through the West Shore, to the ghost town of Leechtown, a long abandoned gold mining community near Sooke. Named after the old steam locomotive which made its run at the turn of the last century, " The Goose" is a walker or cyclist's dream, well-groomed and peaceful with nary a hill to climb. Sooke is about a 40-minute drive from downtown Victoria. Drive west on Highway 1 and stay in the right lane and take the Colwood / Sooke exit to Highway 14 and follow the signs to Sooke.
