Take note bikers and cyclist of this gem of a paved trail in Nanaimo, BC on on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada called The Parkway Trail. It is the most traveled pedestrian and biking trail - a transportation route and a connector route for moving around Nanaimo, BC.

The recreation trail follows along Highway #19 for much of the way. Here and there it explores into the forest and leads to parks, dips under the highway through tunnels and over via bridges. Some of the parks to plan for on the trail or near the trail include the Colliery Dam Park, Buttertubs Marsh, Northfield Park and Brannen Lake.
