This is a cue sheet for the Shawnigan Lake 40 Km Bicycle Map. You can print it out for later use.

Cumulative Distance Where Notes Direction Elevation
0km 0km Shawnigan Lake Start by heading north on Shawnigan Lake Road. Although this is a loop, the direction matters, since the segment on the highway shoulder is awkward if you ride in the opposite direction. For a shorter ride, just head up the hill to the village and continue around the lake - about 23 Km. NNW 354° 123.1m
3.14km 3.14km Shorten the route here by turning onto Cameron Taggart if you're pressed for time NNE 22° 121m
4.51km 1.37km Cobble Hill Shortcut right if you like, or take the scenic route through the village NNW 336° 123m
6.79km 2.28km Right onto the highway shoulder: downhill and a wide shoulder, so no worries. SSE 139° 113m
7.21km 0.42km Right onto Chapman W 256° 112m
7.51km 0.3km Left at the sign to the potter's SSE 140° 108m
8.87km 1.36km Right onto Cobble Hill Road W 261° 87m
10.31km 1.44km Left for a short grunt up Lover's Lane, then a nice descent to Cameron Taggart Road WSW 236° 106m
11.46km 1.15km Left onto Cameron Taggart; restricted visibility of traffic coming from the left. SE 135° 116m
11.96km 0.51km Eyes closed past the nudist colony! ESE 102° 102m
12.73km 0.76km Excursion left to the cidery if you're thirsty! SSW 185° 87m
12.84km 0.11km and then a lovely descent through the dairy farms SSE 147° 86m
13.97km 1.13km and of course a little grunt up out of the valley S 168° 73m
14.61km 0.64km Right onto Shawnigan - Mill Bay Road; traffic coming from the left is obscured. Then a roller-coaster grade up to the village at Shawnigan Lake SW 221° 72m
15.83km 1.22km If you crave an extra hill, take a left on Sylvester and then right on Baldy Mountain Road, eventually rejoining the route where McKernan runs into Shawnigan Lake Road. NNW 321° 127m
17.66km 1.82km Shawnigan Lake Left at the village stop sign onto East Shawnigan Lake Road to take a lap of the lake, or slide down the hill to the right if you're feeling bonked. SSW 184° 123m
18.68km 1.02km let 'em roll down Graveyard Hill, but watch for the side road entering blind just beyond the railway overpass SSW 190° 123m
18.85km 0.18km Watch for traffic from the right just after the railway - not common, but hidden. SSW 191° 133m

25.51km 5.55km Sharp right onto West Shawnigan Lake Road NW 297° 123m
29.36km 3.84km Pleasant back-road excursion to the right if you're not in a hurry - pavement ends half way around, but still good surface. NNW 345° 0m
34.64km 5.28km Right at the stop sign onto Renfrew Road E 71° 123m
34.92km 0.28km Roller coaster of three hills - speed on the descents pays! ESE 102° 130m
