Height of Land Hiking Trail

For serious hikers, this four-day trek along the shoreline of Wakami Lake is unlikely to disappoint. Along the trail the flow of the waters to the north and south (known as the continental divide) is separated by the height of the land.



This is the obvious source of the trail’s name. As it is a substantial distance, you’re might across some the diverse wildlife found within the park. This includes timber wolf, red fox, marten, short-tailed weasel, fisher, beaver, muskrat, otter, moose and black bear. The park staff will gladly provide you with a detailed brochure.

Wakami Lake Provincial Park offers three short nature trails plus the 76-km long Height of Land backpacking trail that circles the lake (a boat crossing must be arranged at the northern end of the lake).
