Silver Springs

Silver Springs Drive NW

If you love a manicured landscape, the community of Silver Springs harbours a very special place:  a botanical garden and forest trail wholly created and maintained by volunteers.  The gardens offer a labyrinth, rose bowl, shade garden and Shakespeare garden, as well as other areas.  I am gobsmacked that this sylvan sanctuary doubles as an off leash park.  We visited in mid-May;  I can't wait to return when some more blooms are in colour.
