One of the best walking trails on the North Shore. The forest is spectacular and perfect for taking your dog off leash.

Beautiful walk with a variety of trail options. You can stay on one of the main paths which are fairly flat and wide or you can take one of the side trails and get a little deeper into the forest. Either way, you won't be disappointed. Not much for lookouts aside from city views but the whole walk is beautiful. Also dog friendly, just leash up.

Hiking with an amazing view and around 30min uphill (for 1hr hike trail)!

Okay.. to be honest, this was one of my least favorite days. The trails seem to be permanently muddy. Even if it's sunny for 100 years straight and everyone on earth dies from dehydration, you can be certain there will still be mud here. On a serious note, make sure you bring hiking boots no matter the weather and expect to get dirty.

Also, the buses there almost never pass by. Once every 45 mins or 50 mins. In almost every other location for hiking trails, the buses will pass more often. All I'm saying is come prepared.

Great set of trails in this area around Brothers Creek. There are a lot of options and loops, but the junctions are all well marked. The popular stops are Lost Lake and Blue Gentian Lake - you can hit both and loop back to your car in roughly 4 hours average pace.

The trail maps on Google are fairly accurate, except around Lost Lake it doesn't show the trails (yet?).

Parking is free in the residential area near the official trail heads but you can also enter into the woods and follow the bike paths upwards until you hit part of the Baden Powell trail.

I recommend downloading the offline maps before you go because cell service is spotty.
