The Lakeside Trail

The Lakeside Trail will be a pathway approximately 10 km long, running from the north to south ends of Cultus Lake along the eastern shore.
It will be a safe and scenic trail used by all ages for walking, running and cycling in one of the most beautiful settings in the lower mainland. The pathway will end the conflict between vehicles, recreational cyclists and pedestrians along a very busy recreational corridor.

It is more than just a path alongside the highway. The Lakeside Trail will wind its way within and between the various campgrounds and along the shore of beautiful Cultus Lake. The trail experience will be informative and educational with interpretive signage along the length of the trail, celebrating the history and ecology of the lake and the region.

Ultimately a trail will be built along the east side of the lake from Main Beach at the north end to the Creekside Mills development, next to The Cottages, at the south end. We plan on building this trail between the highway and the lake for its entire length. There are existing trails all along the lakeside including Main Beach, Sunnyside Campground, parts of the highway, in and out of various BC Parks and their campgrounds. Much of the route our trail will take is already built but just not connected or signed, or necessarily safe to walk along. Branches to existing trails like Teapot Hill, Seven Sisters and TransCanada Trail are planned.
