Trail is muddy/watery at several places, has roots and rocks, which makes it all the more interesting. A lot of it runs along a creek, which is also nice.
A 3-star trail with 4-star natural beauty. Small dose of rainforest hiking on a light incline. Lots of tree roots, cascades, boardwalks, and puddles. Green therapy to the fullest.
Dog friendly trail, navigate “ whyte lake trail” is a easy way to find the parking lot.
This is a great hike! It's not flat, so come in clothes that you can move in and shoes that you don't mind getting a little muddy.
The scenery is stunning! And it is very rewarding to make it to the lake and take a quick swim to cool off.
The parking lot is tricky to find, so just be aware when you get close to the trail head.

If you are looking to flex your muscles that every inch of your body will remind you for the rest of the week after, then take this "small" yet one of the tiring hikes. It's a 6 kms round trip with an elevation gain of 238 meters. Will take around 2 to 2.5 hours depending on how you wish to cover your path. But all the effort is worth when get to see that beautiful lake at the end. Yet another nature's abode in this beautiful city.
Great short hike. About 45 mins each way from the parking lot. Well marked and reasonably well maintained. A sign says the lake itself is not suitable for swimming.
Great trail. About 30 minutes hike from trailhead to the lake for average adult. Not accessibility nor stroller friendly due to elevation changes. Quiet in early morning, an easy work out.
Where the sound of traffic disappears.
I have seen reviews for this place saying the trail is “easy”, and in some cases “moderate”. But when you start the hike the sign actually says “intermediate”. It all depends on the hiker. Whichever level you decide it is, it is worth it. Bring snacks and don’t forget water. No cell reception. Dogs are very welcome.
When the sound of the traffic disappears behind you and is replaced by birds singing and water babbling your ears will thank you. Fresh air and greenery all around. It is not necessarily the destination but the hike there that makes this place so wonderful.
