| Directions: Drive south on Highway 16 from Smithers about three minutes, past the two churches, turn left (east) on the Babine Lake Road. Go to 21.7 km.- look for the sign and parking lot on the right side of the road. | Features: The trails are on rolling hills with some views of the valley, ideal for snowshoeing or skiing. The perimeter trail around the original ski area is flagged red and the inner trails are flagged yellow or blue. Three new trails for advanced skiers have been flagged (in red) to the east . The Hill Trail extends more than 4 km to an alpine hill with a great view. Signs are located at key locations. Much of the pine forest is an old burn with spaces between the trees - you can ski or snowshoe in any direction but take a compass to find your way back to a trail or to the parking lot. | |
