If you are a Comox local, own a dog and/or a mountain bike, you probably are very familiar with these in town nature trails.
NOT likely to encounter bear's, cougar's or any wild creatures beyond bird's when walking these pathways. Consequently most folk's feel safe and comfortable taking a walk in these woods.
The trails are often root bound & rocky, please be careful to watch where you step. Plus you'll be either walking uphill or downhill, which can be somewhat challenging.
Pathways vary widely, some are narrow, steep, somewhat treacherous during wet weather. But...there are several old graded dirt roads throughout the woods which provide a easier walking alternative.
If you are fortunate enough to have a furry, four legged friend to accompany you, then PLEASE... be a responsible pet owner - bag and /or remove their waste product's from the trails or any area's people are likely to use. Thank you.
Remember, these are popular trails. You'll find mother's with wee babies, small children, older, feeble people amongst the folk's that frequent this park. Please, if you have a off leash dog or are riding a bike be mindful of others. Thank you.
Plentiful parking available, no bathrooms, no benches, just nature,...

If you have a dog and are looking for a great dog-off-leash park to get in a good run, North East Woods is fantastic for this.
The trails are also awesome for new mountain bikers with some easier technical sections and lots of faster flowing trails. The climb from the bottom to the top is also not too aggressive and most riders should be able...
Read moreReally nice trail system. Most of the trail is clearly marked, but sometimes you need to take a guess and double back if required. Lots of dogs off leash (which is allowed) so just be aware. Also good for bike trails. Several different exits/entrances. If you look on Google maps where a street goes up towards the forest there is usually an access point there....
