The Selkirk Trestle is a 300 metre long, fir and hemlock trestle that spans the Selkirk waters, a bulge in the narrow saltwater inlet curving north-west from Victoria's Inner Harbour to the Gorge and Portage inlets. Through signs of a changing downtown Victoria dominate the southern view, the immediate environs are mostly tranquil, with lush poplars, willows and maples pushing to the shoreline and softening the urban landscape. The trestle itself is five metres wide, ample room for the hundreds of strollers and cyclists on a Sunday afternoon outing. There's even room for the occaisional fisher casting over the railing for herring. Though the trestle is wide, the surface can get slippery after wet weather. If you're on wheels, check your speed and watch out for other trail users.
