​
Burgoyne Bay Provincial Park is the only approved option for landing.

​
Paragliding
​
There are no legitimate paraglider launches on Salt Spring Island
​
Many land owners in the valley are openly opposed to paraglider pilots landing in their farms. Vancouver Island Paragliding has arranged limited access to a single landing field. If you have not obtained permission to launch a paraglider from Bruce peak then you are trespassing.
Launching from Mount Maxwell is prohibited as it is in a park.
​
Commercial activity is not permitted at the Bruce Peak tenure. If you you are tandem pilot or school you should make your own own arrangements with the land owner.
