Trail Description
After a very short little hill down from the parking area, a mostly flat trail takes you alongside Silverhope Creek to where it connects to the Fraser River. The trail travels over a few rocky and sandy areas underneath Highway 1 overpasses, and has a few areas where you can access the water. There is one small section of boulders to climb over.
The river is an excellent spot for wildlife viewing, including birds, bears and salmon.
Dogs on-leash are permitted on the trail, but please be responsible to ensure they are picked up after and do not wander off the trail to disturb wildlife or the surrounding habitat.
There is cell phone reception on this trail but it's always best to download any electronic maps you plan on using beforehand such as Gaia GPS or AllTrails.
Note the trail ends at the railroad as it is illegal and dangerous to cross railroad tracks except at designated crossings.
