Route Description for One Mile Lake Trail
The hike around One Mile Lake is a scenic route through the woodlands south of Pemberton that provides nice views of the surrounding valley and nearby mountains. The trail comprises fairly easy terrain, making it a nice trek for hikers of all skill levels; however, due to proximity to the water, there are many mosquitos along the trail. Make sure to bring bug spray and adequate clothing to protect yourself from bug bites when hiking along this route. Setting out from the trailhead next to the One Mile Lake Nature Centre, head south towards the lake and walk around its eastern shore. Reaching the junction at the end of the lake, go left to follow a path alongside the creek and another left at the next fork.
