Ammonite Falls Trail

The Ammonite Falls Trail is a well-marked singletrack route within Benson Creek Falls Regional Park, near Nanaimo on Vancouver Island, British Columbia. The trail sits on the traditional territories of the Snuneymuxw people.

Two main access points serve the trail: one off Creekside Place (via Jameson Road) and a northern trailhead off Weigles Road.

The Weigles Road access offers a shorter approach of roughly 3 kilometres round trip with about 100 metres of elevation gain, while the Creekside Place route runs approximately 4. 5–5 kilometres out and back with around 220 metres of elevation gain.

Both trailheads feature clear signage and designated parking. The northern Weigles Road trailhead has seen recent improvements including a new footbridge, stairs, and an expanded parking area.

Dogs are permitted on the trail, which can be hiked in either direction and is considered accessible in all seasons.
