White Birch Green Space is in the seaside community of Sidney, one of thirteen communities that form the Capital Regional District of British Columbia. White Birch Green Space connects the end of White Birch Road to the tennis courts of Resthaven Park. This easement contains an asphalt pathway that divides the grass covered park and is frequently by walkers of all ages. Several conifer trees provide shade along the one hundred and fifty meter long path. This is good way to extend your walk from Resthaven Park and Resthaven Linear Park. Lillian Hoffar Park and Blue Heron Park, in North Saanich, are nearby. The Lochside Trail also passes nearby.
