This hike (or bike) gets you up into the alpine. An 11-km hike (22 out and back) will get you to Elfin Lakes (pictured above) but a shorter (6km) hike will get you to the first cabin (Red Heather). This is a beautiful, easily accessible, touring area in the winter. Although this hike is longer than others in the area, it is well worth it. Go prepared as mountain weather can change quickly.
