About
An easy, level trail with cool shade and excellent views of Shuswap Lake, wildflowers, and birds. This trail follows the old highway bed. It starts paved, becomes a gravel roadbed, then becomes a singletrack trail for the final 2 km. The trail ends where it meets with Hwy 1. Return the way you came.
Access
Parking is limited at the trailhead. Alternate parking is available at Sicamous public beach 1.4 km from the trailhead. From Sicamous beach, travel west on Hwy 1 across the Narrows Bridge and turn right (north) onto the Old Sicamous Hwy Rd. At the intersection with Bruhn Rd stay left (west). This is the trailhead. At approx. 3.6 km find a trail sign where the old roadbed turns into a trail. Hwy 1 is dangerous, take care when crossing the bridge and travelling along the highway.
