  • Lost Lake PassivHaus - Itinerary:
    Our professional guide will fluctuate between two trail options. Both include much of the same but terrain and views vary.

Opt 1: You’ll walk from the bridge across from the PassivHaus, along the Valley Trail to the start of the Fitzsimmons Accessible Nature Trail (4 min) Option 2: You’ll walk from the bridge to behind the Lost Lake sign to a single track walking trail (2 min). Both trails have little to no elevation. Suitable for all abilities and ages.

This 800-meters interpretive walk includes a rich landscape of diverse ecosystems, bear scratch trees, a cave under ancient cedar roots (Fitz trail), mountain views, a glacier-fed stream, a grove of ancient cedars, birds, berries and more!
