Victoria Hills

Welcome to Victoria Hills

A centrally located Kitchener neighbourhood with a range of homes from the late 1970s to newer apartments built in the last 10 years. Its quiet, tree-lined streets and cul-de-sacs lead to parks, trails, and plenty of green space. While it's not as close to the Expressway as other areas, the neighbourhood has easy access to key roads like Westmount, Victoria, Highland, and Fischer-Hallman, making it convenient for getting around the city.

Location

Victoria Hills is a centrally located neighbourhood in Kitchener offering a variety of housing for one and all. Homes in the area range from the late-1970s to more recent construction of apartments within the last 10 years. Quiet, winding streets and cul-de-sacs are lined with trees and offer access to numerous parks and trails that lead to even more green space for residents to appreciate. Even though Victoria Hills is not as close to the Expressway as other neighbourhoods in the city, it does offer access to many main roads (Westmount, Victoria, Highland, and Fischer-Hallman) that will help your navigation throughout the city.

Another important feature of the neighbourhood to note is the close proximity to Victoria Park while remaining separate from the hustle and bustle that is Downtown Kitchener.

The park itself provides visitors with extensive fields, playground equipment, a baseball diamond, and even a garden. While these are the most notable areas for outdoor excursions, there are still many other areas in and around the neighbourhood for nature lovers to enjoy.
