Uplands Park

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Uplands Park is located in the municipality of Oak Bay, adjacent to the city of Victoria, British Columbia. Uplands Park consists of 76 acres of woodland trails and undeveloped natural reserve land. It is among North America's first natural preserves to be set aside in an urban region . The preserve was established in the 1940s by the Oak Bay city council, under the leadership of Reeve Walter Walker. A cairn, marking Walker's instrumental roll in the creation of Uplands Park, stands at Cattle Point, near the southern coastal edge of the park.

Uplands Park attracts many local amateur photographers. Some Uplands Park photos that have been uploaded to FLIKR can be seen at [1]
