   Is Mount Benson a good introduction to Vancouver Island?

   • Hiking up Mount Benson is a great introduction to Vancouver Island! It does not take too long, and it’s within view of Nanaimo, so it works well as a first hike off the ferry. I loved that the trail was so varied with tangled forest, fabulous rocky outcrops and a little bit of scrambling to keep things interesting.
