Trail guide

The Lake Trail is the walk everyone should take first. Two easy kilometres loop the shoreline below Bear Lodge, right under the Three Bears, and it takes less than an hour at a stroll. It is the perfect after-lunch or arrival-day walk, and the photo spots along the shore are some of the most photographed on the property. Start below Bear Lodge and follow the marked shoreline trail.
