Going to be going up in a month or so and would like to do some hiking. I have done the Caribou Rock trail, but was wondering if anyone has done some of the other day hikes up there. Any suggestions?

Magnetic Rock trail is nice. Honeymoon Bluff is not a long hike, but has a spectacular view at the top.

Ya I have done that one also. I was thinking about trying a stretch of the border route trail. Has anyone been on this one?

We hiked to Bridal Veil Falls last summer and really enjoyed it. The hike was a spur trail of the BRT and a portion of the BRT.

We also have hiked the Centennial Trail several times, the first 1.3 miles of that Trail is the Kek and you can continue on instead of following Centennial Trail.

We've snowshoed a portion of the South Lake Trail in the winter but never tackled it in the summertime. It's not a highly traveled trail so I've heard it gets quite overgrown in the summertime.

Paddle up to Stairway Portage/Falls at the north end of Duncan and hike west 2 miles or so on the BRT to the Rose Lake Cliffs. Rugged, steep sections at times, hence the paddle to get there rather than hiking the Caribou Trail. I have some helpful gps coordinates if you'd like.

All good suggestions above.......

Something I really like about the Centenial Trail is that it's a loop instead of a there a back type of hike like the others.
