the surroundings

HIKING TRAILS starting from the Lodge offer guests a full range of hiking, from easy walks around the lakes, to alpine meadows abundant with WILD FLOWERS in the summer months. The "Cathedral Rim Trail" follows a high alpine ridge 8500 feet above sea level. This DAY HIKE leads to the unusual geological formations that Cathedral Provincial Park is best known for. The Devils Woodpile, Stone City, Smokey the Bear and The Giant Cleft are all on The Rim Trail.

miles of views

The 360-degree VIEW from the rim enables hikers to see the North Cascade Mountains, The Coast Range, The Thompson Plateau, and The Kootenays all from one location. On a clear day Mt. Baker is easily visible in the west and it is even possible to see Mt. Rainier near Seattle. Almost 200 air miles away!

wilderness retreat

After a day of hiking or FISHING guests enjoy a relaxing soak in the hot tub, a good meal in the LODGE DINNING ROOM and a pleasant evening in front of the stone fireplace. There are no radios, televisions or even room phones and guests remark that the lodge is place where new found friends entertain themselves by engaging in the lost art of after dinner conversation.
