The park is located about 55 km southwest of Prince George. The Bobtail Mountain trail is a 5 km trail (one-way) that starts with a short climb, thereafter continuing with gentle ups and downs until you reach the summit of Bobtail Mountain. The trail ends at a viewpoint where there is a cabin suitable for day use. The website warns travellers about a bridge removal adding an additional 2 km each way to the hike. On foot, the total distance could be 14 km (8.5 miles) in unfamiliar territory. We think we can do it. Here is what actually happened.
Ancient Forest Provincial Park
Nestled in the traditional territory of the Lheidli T’enneh, the park protects a portion of the only inland temperate rainforest in the world. Hiking the Ancient Forest trail will bring you past thousand-year-old western redcedars and rich biodiversity of plants, mosses, lichens and fungi. We finished our day here in British Columbia’s newest provincial park.
