Victoria Day Long Weekend
May 16–19, 2025
Make the Most of the May Long Weekend
One of the best things to do on Vancouver Island, just 35 minutes from downtown Victoria
A breathtaking view might bring you here, but it’s the fresh air, the forest energy, and the feeling of being part of something bigger that will make you want to stay. This May Long Weekend, Malahat SkyWalk invites you to pause, play, and connect with nature, with your people, and with the place we call home.
Whether you're local to the Island or visiting from across the water, this is the perfect time to kick off summer. Soar above the treetops, breathe deep, and feel your shoulders drop. This is the real Vancouver Island.
Stay All Day with One Ticket
This is not just a place to snap a photo. It is a place to slow down and soak it all in.
Your Single Admission Tickeet gives you full access to the entire site for the whole day. Start your adventure with the 600 meter elevated TreeWalk, a stroller-friendly path through the canopy that invites you to experience nature from a whole new perspective. Make your way up the Spiral Tower, a gentle incline to the top with no stairs required, and take in sweeping 360 degree views of the Salish Sea, coastal mountains, and islands beyond.
Feeling brave? Step out onto the Adventure Net or take the plunge down our 32 meter Spiral Slide. Ride it again. And again. And again and again and again... (50 times is the record!).
Back on solid ground, follow the forest path of Luke’s Lane, hang out in a hammock, or wander the Tower Plaza where surprises, stories, and snacks are always close at hand.
We are more than just a view. We are a place where adventure, connection, and a little childlike joy come together. No rush. No rules. Just a day well spent.

No car? No problem. We’re offering our FREE Victoria Shuttle from downtown Victoria to Malahat SkyWalk on Saturday and Sunday.

Fuel Up with Island Flavour
Kick off your adventure at the Welcome Centre with Happy Camper, our new spot for quick bites. Grab a hot coffee, fresh churros, or a frozen lemonade before you head up into the trees.
After exploring the Spiral Tower and soaking in the views, unwind at Tower Plaza with a meal from The Canteen. Have you tried our new smash burgers yet? You’ll also find homemade minestrone soup, pizza, hot dogs, and comfort food favourites.
Don’t forget to stop by Softy’s for a swirl of soft serve. It’s dairy-free, gluten-free, and fully delicious. It's a sweet way to wrap up a day of island adventure.
Make It a Long Weekend to Remember
This summer, we are all about more than the view. We are here for the feeling of the wonder, the connection and the joy of discovering something unforgettable. Whether you are racing down the slide, spotting eagles above the trees, or just sharing a moment over frozen lemonade, this is what long weekends are meant for.
Grab your ticket. Hop on the shuttle. Make your way to Malahat SkyWalk. The forest is calling.
