Mount Macpherson Trail – Revelstoke Nordic Ski Club

The Mount Macpherson trail head is approximately seven kilometres south of Revelstoke on Highway 23. There is a large trail map situated beside the trail fee collection hut. A trail fee box at the trailhead is for times when the booth is not manned.  Outhouses are at the parking lot and by the Ole Sandberg Cabin.

A map for the area can be obtained at the trailhead hut, the Revelstoke Community Centre, the Chamber of Commerce, or from the Columbia Forest District Office. You can also order a free map from the Revelstoke Chamber of Commerce 

Approximately 24 kilometres of trails are groomed for both skating and classic technique with a Bombardier BR275. The User Agreement requires the trails to be groomed at least once a week (usually prior to the weekend) or after a significant snowfall. The User Agreement authorizes the club to collect fees for skiing.

The Drive....

The Columbia Mountains are steep and the valleys narrow. the region includes the communities of Revelstoke, Golden abd Three Valley Gap all accessed by the Trans-Canada Highway.

Hikers will often be sharply reminded that many of the trails here were originally built as access to mountain climbs and glaciers!

Remember - Watch for Bears.
