Up late for a trail jog we left Rathtrevor just before 11am. We arrive in Campbell River around 1pm. Again we stopped at the visitor information center (“i”) to inquire of the local campgrounds, shower and internet access. Any IN access is piggyback…..just because we like the challenge. The “i” center had accessible IN service but incidentally wasn’t working at the time of our stop. They did inform us that Elks Falls campground has many sites available and no showers (back to babywipes).
We landed a nice campsite at the back of Elk Falls Provincial Park (campground) and went for a short trail walk behind the site. This trail leads to a loop around part of Campbell River and to Elk Falls which we took the loop the following morning (photo above).

Campbell River is a smaller town than Naniamo and has many outdoor activities: hiking, boating, fishing, etc. It is also in the process of suburban sprawl which leads me to believe this is a bustling town.
