Hinton and the surrounding Alberta Northern Rockies are a trail lover’s paradise. There are thousands of kilometres of trails that cross through the Rocky Mountains and foothills of the region.
Whether you are looking for an easy hike around a lake, or a challenging multi-day trek over mountain summits, there is a seemingly endless trail network in Hinton and the surrounding area to explore.
If you’re looking for a hike within town, there’s no better place to start than the Beaver Boardwalk which acts as an access point to the Happy Creek trail system, with over 30 km of connecting singletrack trails and a wide range of options for all skill levels.
A mix of rolling terrain, roots, climbs, boardwalks, and scenic viewpoints make this a local favourite for everyone.
