The Salmon Trail is a joint project between Redd Fish Restoration Society and the Ucluelet Aquarium, consisting of five educational stations across Ucluelet and Tofino on different days of the week. The stations aim to educate about the salmon lifecycle and why salmon is so important to coastal communities. 

Find the Salmon Trail every Tuesday at the Lighthouse booth.

Once you have visited each station and completed the activity associated with it, you will receive a prize! 

Come search for the tracks of Bears, Wolves and Cougars, on the beach and in the dunes.

This event is free with purchase of a National Park entry pass, and open to all ages. Children must be accompanied by an adult. Please do not bring pets. Recording devices are not permitted. Arrive early as parking may be limited.
