Creek Trail - a
short all-purpose trail that leads into a small section of the backwood
forest area north of the Squamish Village town centre. The level,
well groomed, easy grade hiking trail route is only 1.8 Km in length
and ultimately connects to Brennan Park.
From the trailhead marker on Logger's Lane
Road, the hard-packed, earthy trail snakes through the forest and
lush vegetation eventually bumping into Logger's Creek. The distance
to the creek from the trailhead is only 0.6 Km. A mere 10 minute
walk for most.
Once arriving at the creek, the wilderness
setting is inviting and calming. There is something about tall pine
trees swaying, the sound of the tumbling water pouring over rounded
boulders and birds singing high above unseen that gets to a person.
The creek will provide a few peaceful moments for all who visit.
Keep your head up. The trail is accessed by
many activity enthusiasts like horseback riders, mountain bikers,
hikers and dog walkers. All enjoy this popular short cut trail so
it is important to respect all who use the trail.
The Logger's Creek Trail is a connector trail
in a way because it intersects with the community areas around Finch
Drive and Brennan Park. From the trailhead on Logger's Lane Finch
Avenue is only 1.0 Km away.
Trail Access - One trailhead
is located on Logger's Lane Road just south of the Smoke
Bluffs. There is no parking lot so the brown post trail marker
can be easily missed on the side of the road. It is best to park
in the Smoke Bluffs parking lot and walk to the trailhead marker.
Another trailhead is located in Brennan Park.
