| Description | This is a well developed, popular trail that follows the Campbell River along the north shore and into Elk Falls Park and to the Suspension Bridge. We will have lunch at Elk Falls, and return on the River Trail. We will start from the parking lot on the north side of the river across the “log” bridge before the Quinsam Campground. TURN RIGHT off of Hwy 28. Anyone not wanting the full, 4 hr hike, could loop back to the starting point when we get to the bridge. |
