About

A rigorous wilderness trail for fit, experienced hikers. Several exposed areas require comfort with scrambling, heights, and using ropes to descend loose trail. The trail is approx. 7 km round trip (including the lookout spur trails), with an additional 3 km of wilderness routes in the alpine. The trail starts in the forest then climbs into the alpine with wildflowers, steep cliffs, and tremendous views of Paxton Valley and the Monashee Mountains to the east. Along the lower forestry roads there may be cattle in the area, so please remember to leave cattle gates as you find them.

Access

From Falkland, drive 1 km west on Hwy 97. Just past the Falkland Stampede grounds, turn right onto Wetaskawin Rd headed towards the landfill, then turn left above the landfill site. Continue up switchbacks, going uphill for the next 7 km. The incline can be very slippery when wet, even for 4WD vehicles. At 7 km a sign indicates parking and the trailhead on your right.
