Rainforest in the Pacific Rim National Park Reserve
Two trails that take you to the heart of an ancient rainforest. Giant trees, soft hanging moss, ferns with open inviting fronds and other forest plants welcome you to stroll the boardwalk and learn about their home. The two looped trails take you by salmon spawning streams, huuuuge cedars, stately snags, and nurse logs letting you see how the community of nature all nurtures each other. Difficulty is 3/5.
