    The Terwillegar Park West Loop is part of an intricate web of local trails at the base of Rabbit Hill. This loop sees the perimeter of the park while many other trails pass through the middle. It is easy to get off trail, but with so many options, you will always be able to make it back to the trailhead. The route is well-signed and follows simple terrain.

    From the parking area for Terwillegar Park West Loop trail, follow the main trail for 200 m. At this point, head right towards a human-made pond. Continue northbound to a second human-made pond that stays on a northbound trail reaching the river. Here, take a left to follow a perimeter trail that follows the river.

    At the 3.0 km point, come to a junction and turn left, following signs back to the main parking lot. Many trails are intersecting on this route, so always use caution at the excessive junctions.
