This beautiful flowing trail immerses travelers in the tranquility of the forest between Blind Bay and White Lake. This cross-country trail links communities in the South Shuswap and, combined with the ORV routes, provides a series of recreational loop trails to explore. From the Balmoral Trailhead, follow directions to the Balmoral Bluffs viewpoint, then take the right (south) trail. Follow signs across the ATV trails and forestry road through open forests. The trail climbs to the K9 viewpoint (2 km one-way) with vistas south and west toward Tappen and Notch Hill. A great turnaround destination, or rest stop before continuing to follow signs to the John Evdokimoff Bike Skills Park and White Lake trailhead (7.4 km one-way).
