Wildside (hiking trail)

The Wildside is a hiking trail on Flores Island that connects the town of Ahousaht to several beaches and wild forests.

The trail is a First Nations women's eco-tourism initiative to secure steady jobs and income for the people of Ahousaht. Some 15 people, men, women and children, created it by manual labour in 1993.
