Well marked trails. Some beautiful conifer forests with big growth timbers and some areas that are only deciduous and less interesting. Parking at the Silver Valley Road entrance.

Such a beautiful place. So many trails to explore, easy moderate or hard. Definitely find a trail map and download it before you head out, it's easy to get turned around. A little peice of heaven.

Hidden gem, great trails. Hiked here in early May and saw a couple of black bears right at the beginning, near the gate. I stayed my safe distance respectfully but it was a good reminder that everytime we are out in the wild, we are in their backyard.

Shame there is not more intact old-growth in a research forest. The 400-year old stands they mention online are very small and also unmarked so may be overlooked by the general public. Most of the trails are FSRs and through young forest/cut blocks - not appealing. Views are also mostly obstructed. Bonus point for being relatively quiet though. Wish they had more information available on trail (would be nice if trees were labeled near the parking lot, if the old growth stand was marked, etc.) and provided better access to the lakes in the area.

Hiked the Blue Trail with friends recently and was rewarded with a great view at the top lookout. A few fairly steep sections. Beautiful research forest, no dogs allowed.

I've been hiking here for years, it's definitely a hidden gem of the Fraser Valley. Loads of trails criss cross the area with some beautiful views and scenery. Trails are mostly well established with only a few that are slightly overgrown. There are some areas that have been logged and are now re-growing, which showcases the sustainability of the forestry sector. Even though I've been coming here for years there is still plenty left to explore, I look forward to returning. Highly recommended visit!

Bit better trail markers and bit more bathrooms further up. But omg beautiful scenery. The walk thru the woods is incredible. A picnic along the way is a great idea too.
