This is a horseshoe-shaped point-to-point hike that presents a multitude of options for exploration. It takes hikers deep into the Tonquin Valley, where they’re surrounded by giant peaks and alpine meadows. It could also be done as a run in one day, but we’d recommend spending a few nights with all the possibilities for exploration in the valley.

Be warned that mosquitos in the early summer can be brutal! We’ve seen multiple trail reports about hikers having to turn around due to the severity. It’s fairly obvious, too, as campsite reservations are easy to make for the worst dates.
