Timeline
16:56
Grab a quick snack or drink at Green Cuisine. This vegetarian spot is open late and offers a generous buffet of vegan dishes, perfect for fueling up before your walk. The price is reasonable, and you can be in and out quickly.
17:16
Head to the Lochside Regional Trail. Start your walk from one of the designated access points, such as the parking lot at Lochside Dr & Mackenzie or Lochside Park. The trail is mostly paved and rolls through suburban Victoria, offering easy walking conditions.
17:46
Watch the sunset. As the sun sets toward the WSW, the trail offers open views of the horizon. The golden light starting around 16:54 will have already cast a warm glow, but the final moments of sunset provide a crisp, clear end to the day.
18:31
End your evening back at Green Cuisine or nearby. Since it is open until 20:00, you can return for a drink or a final bite while the area is still active. Alternatively, walk to Lucky Bar, a small spot just minutes away, to unwind after your walk.
Local tip
The trail is mostly paved, making it easy to walk in regular shoes. If you want to extend your walk, the trail connects to the Galloping Goose Regional Trail, but keep an eye on the time as the sunset moves quickly.
Check before you go
- Green Cuisine is open Mo-Su 10:00-20:00. Make sure you arrive before 20:00 if you plan to eat or drink there after sunset.
