The Hole in the Wall is a short, scenic hike near Port Alberni on Vancouver Island, located just off Highway 4 across from Coombs Country Candy. This unique spot features a creek flowing through a man-made hole in a rock wall, originally created for a pipeline. The easy 1.5 km round-trip trail winds through forest and ends at a picturesque waterfall, popular for photos and a quick nature break. While the trail is accessible, be cautious when parking and crossing the busy highway, as there are no official signs or crosswalks.
