About GodeyCreek
A 2.0 km moderately difficulty non motorized walking trail which winds it way uphill to a nice viewing area of the City of Merritt and then back down to the former tourist information centre. There is one picnic table and outhouse located at the top of the trail. 3 wooden benches are found along the trail and a trail map kiosk at the start. There are tree tags periodically to help locate the trail but the tread is quite well defined. A great trial that can also be snowshoed for the hardy winter adventurer.
This is also the trail head for the Godey Creek Mountain Bike trails network managed by the Merritt Mountain Bike Association where there is a large kiosk map showing the biking trails.
