About Onward Point
This easy 20 minute return hike showcases Onward Point, which is the best location on the channel for whale viewing. A comfortable cedar gazebo on the Point awaits visitors as a welcome picnic spot. The pathway features rock stairways as it winds its way through a majestic forest of Sitka Spruce and Red Cedar.
