Track and Tower Trail

This looped trail features a spectacular lookout over Cache lake. An optional 5.5 km side trip follows an abandoned railway to Mew Lake.

One of the most interesting is the Track & Tower Trail, which exposes the walker to some of the Park's railroad history. At one point, the trail follows part of an old railway line, where the anchor points for a huge log trestle may still be seen. In the gorge, the remains of log cribs, foundation points for the trestle, still exist.

For the serious hiker, who wishes to spend more than several days walking in the Park, there are three backpacking trails, totalling more than 90 miles (140 km).
