The Old Growth Recreation Trail winds through a dense stand of ancient western red cedar and hemlock forest in the inland rainforest region of British Columbia’s Kootenays. Thick moss covers the forest floor and fallen logs, while towering old growth trees line the route, creating a cool and shaded atmosphere even in summer. Short boardwalk sections and packed dirt paths make the trail relatively accessible, though conditions can become slippery after rain.
