Details

Starts at the first aid building and travels downhill to Goldie Lake, which it then loops around. Your only elevation gain will be the 150m you walk back up to the parking lot. ( You can also access this area via the Three Chop/Old Buck/Perimeter Trail network )

You may wish to add the Flower Lake loop to your hike, another 3.5 km and one hour to walk, roughly

A self-guided interpretive trail which takes you into beautiful subalpine meadows and undisturbed forest. Terrain is fragile so stay on the trails if at all possible.

During winter trails may be rerouted, but this is a public access route, so don't pay for snowshoeing unless you use the routes created by the resort.
