Alice
Lake Provincial Park
Four
Lakes Trail:
The Four Lakes
Trail is 6 km in length and takes a circuitous route past all four
lakes. You can access the trail from the Stump Lake parking lot
and the Alice Lake south beach area.The trail takes you through
Douglas fir, western red cedar and other coniferous and deciduous
trees. Some of the birds that can be seen are warblers, Steller's
jay, chickadees and robins. Small animals such as raccoons, squirrels
and chipmunks inhabit the forest and are more apt to be seen by
visitors. A few box turtles have been spotted sunning themselves
on logs at Alice Lake and Stump Lake.
The trail is
closed to cycling from May 1st to September 15th.
Please be prepared.
Make sure you have plenty of water and snacks with you while you
are on the trail. Proper footwear is recommended.
DeBeck's
Hill Trail:
The DeBeck's
Hill Trail is approximately 3 km round trip. This is a fairly strenuous
hike as it climbs 274 metres from the trailhead. The trail access
is from the parking lot at the south beach area. Walk past the yellow
gate and there is a small sign at the beginning of the trail. Go
to the right and follow the old logging road up the hill. This road
will take you to the high point above and outside of Alice Lake
Park.
As you hike
up the hill you will come across an old steam donkey once used for
yarding logs. At the top of DeBeck's Hill you will find a spectacular
view of the ice-capped Tantalus Range to the west and Mount Garibaldi
to the east. The Squamish River also winds its way down the valley
floor.
Other
Trails:
On Mikes
Loop trail there is a fork that heads up to The Overlook outside
the park. Jacks Trail and The Tracks from Hell Trail (links then
to Mashiter Trail) head out of the park to the Garibaldi Highlands.
Bob MacIntosh Memorial Trail heads up out of the park and past the
power lines to the Deadend Loop, Made in the Shade, Rock N
Roll and Eds Bypass. These trails then follow along the power
lines to Robs Corners and Cliffs Corners, which then
link up with the Tracks from Hells Trail or the Mashiter Trail.
