This remote trail runs through the Ghost Public Land Use Zone toward the Banff boundary, following a mostly flat valley floor surrounded by tall limestone cliffs. The route passes through overgrown brush, open meadows, and shallow creek crossings, with beautiful views of the Ghost Lakes and the Minnewanka Valley ahead. The access road requires off-roading on rough terrain, best tackled with a high-clearance 4×4, and should be avoided after heavy rain. Wildlife is common here—fresh bear and cougar scat are often spotted—so travel in a large group, carry bear spray, and only visit when the trail is officially open.
