The Hartland landfill is the waste disposal site for the city of Victoria, British Columbia and the Greater Victoria area. It was purchased by the Capital Regional District in 1975 and has been directly operated by its Environmental Sustainability Department since 1985. It is located in the District of Saanich on top of a hill, between Victoria and Sidney, at the end of Hartland Avenue. There is a public waste drop-off area, a recycling centre, a household hazardous waste collection facility and an electricity generating station that utilizes landfill gas as a fuel source. It has won several international environmental awards. At current disposal rates it is estimated that the landfill will be full by 2045.
There are varying levels of mountain biking trails for people who wish to use ATB, All Terrain Bikes. These paths are located outside the fenced garbage disposal and processing areas. The cycling, or hiking areas have park signs and water hose stations to clean cycling equipment [1]. The mountain bike and hiking trails are in the land areas within the Mount Work Regional Park boundaries.
