After nearly two years of hard work and sweat, the Island Lake trail crew has finished a spectacular new alpine hiking trail at Island Lake Lodge near Fernie, BC. Goldilocks is a loop extension off the top of the existing Spineback trail. This new loop takes hikers through breathtaking peaks, headwalls, valleys and alpine wildflowers. Leave right from the doors of the lodge and end up in the spectacular alpine in the Lizard Range with grand views of the Cedar and Elk River valleys. This additional trail adds to Island Lake’s reputation as a true hiking destination in the Canadian Rockies. Have a look at additional Fernie hiking trail info.
