A series of loop trails in Yard Creek Provincial Park explore the old growth cedar and hemlock forest along Eagle River. Includes boardwalk, interpretive signs, and picnic area. Look for salmon running up Yard Creek at the east end of the trails in September. Link these trails with a visit to the trails on the south side of the highway.
