This section of the Baden Powell Trail provides a gentle introduction to one of the North Shore's most famous routes. The trail follows a shaded corridor through coastal forest above Horseshoe Bay, crossing small creeks and passing beneath towering Douglas fir and cedar trees. While much of the Baden Powell is known for rugged terrain, this stretch is relatively approachable and serves as a scenic connector between Horseshoe Bay and the steeper trails climbing toward Eagle Ridge and Fisherman's Bluff.
