About Sechelt Heritage Forest
This area is known for its well marked network of community built hiking trails that wind through large trees in a second growth forest, close to Sechelt. There are a handful of large vets that survived fires and past harvesting. Maps at the trail junctions will help you navigate your way through the dozens of trails in the network. Lookouts provide fabulous views of Sechelt and the ocean. The main trail from the parking lot is suitable for visitors with various levels of mobility.
The District of Sechelt and the Sechelt Groves Society maintain the trails and have a great website with more comprehensive info about the trails: http://secheltgroves.com/maps.html
