Tips

Big boulders are arranged in the shape of a giant bear footprint at the meeting place. It's a nice spot to take a break during a hike or bike ride through the valley to learn, share and take in the natural beauty of the area.

There's a plaque with site with details about the significance of the bear in the history of the indigenous people.
