About This Trail

The Old Cedars Trail is a short but steep climb up the ridge behind Daajing Giids (Queen Charlotte) to a stand of large, old cedar trees.

The informal, unmarked route gains elevation quickly, so it's a good idea to take your time and wear footwear with good grip.

Note: the photos shown here are representative stock images of old-growth cedars of similar size and character (credit: Ancient Forest Alliance), not the exact trees found on this trail.
