This trail is regarded as one of the most picturesque viewpoints in the region. From the parking lot at the far end of Hinton Nordic Centre road, hike 1 km uphill to be rewarded with the stunning views of the Rocky Mountains and surrounding foothills. Continue along the ridge trail for 3 km where giant sandstone boulders and cliffs dot the landscape, creating a climbing playground. The trail descends steeply into Joachim Valley. Continue along Joachim Valley Trail for another 2.5 km to connect to Jarvis Lake Campground.
