A new study from Preply, a language learning platform, found Victoria was the second most walkable city in Canada for tourists, based on the distances between the city’s top attractions.
The study analyzed 21 cities in the country using Tripadvisor listings to find the five top tourist attractions in each city; and Google Maps to find out the distance, time and number of steps required to visit the destinations on foot in one day.
The top attractions in Victoria according to Tripadvisor are Craigdarroch Castle, the Royal B.C. Museum, the Inner Harbour pathway, the B.C. legislature, and Beacon Hill Park, which have an average of 4.4 kilometres between them.
The study notes that walking between all of the locations should take about one hour and about 5,720 steps.
Halifax managed to beat Victoria, with an average distance of 3.3 kilometres between attractions.
