Mount Tzouhalem is about 10 minutes from the center of downtown Duncan on Cowichan Bay. This hill is all about the All-Mountain bike, but a freeride or well climbing DH bike will do the trick too. There is slow technical singletrack, and flowing fast swoopy stuff.
Primary Trail Type: All-Mountain & Downhill
Land Status: Community Forest
Land Manager: Municipality of North Cowichan

Access Info:
Municipal parking lots and official trail heads with kiosks at both Nevilane Road and Kaspa Road. The Kaspa Road parking lot features a washroom, expanded parking and bike wash.
