Lovely trail. Great for beginners. Fragrant forest. A couple of steep sections for those who like it or if not accustomed can walk bike Perfect little ride from Garibaldi Highlands to Alice Lake getting most of the climbing out of the way, go for a dip and back again.

source: Just a novice rider/masseuse for tired legs
