Some mornings just feel extra special, and our recent yoga experience at Malahat SkyWalk was exactly that.
On a beautiful Saturday morning at 8:00 AM, we joined a yoga class led by Candice, one of the incredible instructors from Spinco Victoria. From the moment the class began, her calming voice set the tone for the morning. She created the perfect balance between relaxation and movement—it felt peaceful and grounding while still giving us a great workout.
What made it even more memorable was the setting. We were practicing yoga high above the forest at Malahat SkyWalk, surrounded by breathtaking views of Southern Vancouver Island. As the morning sun rose over the mountains and ocean, we stretched, breathed, and moved through our practice while feeling completely immersed in nature.
Why Malahat SkyWalk Is So Special
If you haven’t visited yet, Malahat SkyWalk is one of Vancouver Island’s most unique attractions. Located just north of Victoria, the experience begins with a beautiful elevated boardwalk winding through the treetops before leading to a stunning spiral tower that rises nearly 250 meters above sea level.

From the top, you’re treated to panoramic views of:
- Finlayson Arm
- Saanich Peninsula
- Mount Baker
- The Gulf Islands
- Dense West Coast forests stretching as far as the eye can see
Being up there before the crowds arrived felt magical. We were practically the only ones on the SkyWalk, making the experience even more peaceful and intimate. There was something surreal about practicing yoga in the sky while taking in some of the most beautiful views on Vancouver Island.
A Little Diet Coke Moment
The morning was made even sweeter thanks to Lisa, who surprised us with matching Diet Coke hats she picked up during a recent trip to Scottsdale, Arizona. If you know us, you know our love for a little Diet Coke moment, so naturally we wore them proudly and snapped plenty of photos.
The matching hats quickly became the unofficial accessory of the day and added a fun touch to an already memorable morning.
Lunch with a View at The Eyrie Resort
After yoga, we headed to The Eyrie Resort for a scenic lunch overlooking the mountains and ocean.
The views were absolutely spectacular. Sitting by the windows, enjoying fresh food and good conversation after a morning of movement, felt like the perfect way to slow down and soak in the beauty of Vancouver Island.
My meal was packed with fresh greens, avocado toast, perfectly poached eggs, and vibrant vegetables—a nourishing choice after yoga. Between the incredible food, stunning scenery, and wonderful company, it was one of those afternoons you wish could last a little longer.
A Perfect Vancouver Island Morning
This experience was such a wonderful reminder of how important it is to make time for movement, friendship, and being outdoors.
Yoga in the sky, breathtaking views, matching Diet Coke hats, and lunch at The Eyrie Resort—it truly was one of those picture-perfect Vancouver Island mornings that fills your cup in every way.
If you ever have the opportunity to attend a special event at Malahat SkyWalk, don’t hesitate. Whether you’re there for yoga, a walk among the treetops, or simply to take in the views, it’s an experience that leaves you feeling refreshed, inspired, and connected to the beauty around you. ✨
