Cedar Grove Trail
Cedar Grove Trail is a gentle half-kilometre loop through a stand of majestic old-growth Western Red Cedar trees.
Trail Description
Hikers of all abilities can access superb interior rainforest habitat, untarnished by natural or industrial disturbances. The trees in the grove, some with a diameter of over 2 metres, are hundreds of years old. They tower over 30 metres high, affording a canopy of dense green cedar bows, home to many species of birds and insects, as well as lichens, mosses, and plants that feed larger mammals. The Devil’s club, lady fern, and cedar trees in the grove are typical of a moist interior forest site. This particular old-growth habitat hosts the lichens and shrubs upon which southern mountain caribou feed during their late fall and early spring low elevation migration.
