The main part of the trail is through lush forest with interesting views of the bay and distant hills, some artful rusty cargo ships. There are some more industrial areas that you walk though, so one less star, but we did see eagles and a huge jelly fish. There are kayak rentals at the end and a restaurant on the back bay.

Nice, mostly easy scenic walk to Seal Cove via the Rushbrook Trail in Prince Rupert, Canada--about…read morea 2-mile round trip. The path is flat and well-maintained with beautiful harbor views, boats, and surrounding mountains. There are slight inclines and declines in a few sections with steep grade signs, but overall it's very manageable. Peaceful, quiet, and serene with lots of fresh air. Seal Cove itself is more of a working waterfront, but the shoreline walk along the way is the real highlight.

We timed our hike to see the reversing water flow along the rapids and did see this, though we were…read morenot as close as we thought we would be thus that part of the hike was a bit underwhelming; however, the hike itself was excellent and had a lot of variety, from lush forests, to more open meadow areas with shrubs, and numerous river views. We did the full loop to include grassy bay, and enjoyed the peacefulness of the bay area. You will run into cruise ship tour groups here, but they seemed to just hike to the rapids lookout, then turn around, forgoing the loop trail to grassy bay, so take that for more solitude. The hike is a lollipop and the "stem" part of the hike before the loop is the portion with the most elevation gain or descent, otherwise the rest of the hike has mostly undulating up/down to flat elevation. If it has been raining, you will encounter mud. Taxis will take you to the trail head for about $20 one way, you can call them for pickup when you are done, but we got lucky and an empty taxi was just pulling in when we finished our hike.

This is a nice short hike. For me to get to Butze Rapids Viewpoint and back took about 1 hr. The…read moreinfo sign said 2 to 2.5 hours = 5.4 km. I have done a 10km run and it took me 1hr and 18 mins and if I walked 10 km it would be 1hr and 45 mins. I am not the fittest person on earth. So for 5.4 km it is really 1 hr. Also note that this trail goes in a loop. This is a family friendly trail. It is not difficult and it doesn't have much elevation to it. There are free parking at the beginning of the trail. There are signs regarding wolves. Well I haven't seen any.

We had a very knowledgeable tour guide. The only part we were disappointed in is when it started to rain we went in to the café and wanted some chowder. One Star for cafe. They call it smoked salmon chowder a small cup was $13. It was filled with potatoes and vegetables and a small chunk of salmon. When I say small, it was a flake. I would not order it again.

Admission is $12 for adult. There isn't much to see. I didn't do the guided tour because I came at the wrong timing. There is a cafe here that closes at 3:30pm. Other than that, you have to bring your own snacks. People are very friendly here. The Cannery is located on Port Edward Island. There are free parking just outside. First come first serve. If you are in the area, you might as come by and check it out.

The not so faint aroma of chlorine, the screaming children and all those floating bandaids... Well, i love swimming. Pretty much anywhere. So when I learned there was a pool in Rupert I figured it was the best antidote to days of meetings and potential stress. For $5.50 (plus 50c for locker) i only had to share the one lane available with one person (there is adult swim only after 6pm but before there are lots of lessons, screaming kids) and although i found the temperature to be a bit hot, it really did put me into the zone. So if you're jonesing for a few laps, this definitely does the job. Just don't look too hard at the bottom of the pool.
