The larch trail with the dog
2.5 hoursEasyFamily 6+Dog friendly
Overview
A shaded traverse through old larch woods with three stream crossings and one open viewpoint.
Cool in summer, gold in October, and quiet on almost any day of the week.
Why we love it
Every hundred metres there is water for the dog.
Basecamp tip
The viewpoint bench halfway is the best place in the valley to watch a storm arrive from somewhere else.
Good to know
- Muddy for a day or two after heavy rain.
What to bring
- Water bowl
- Insect repellent in July
If the weather changes
Fine in light rain — the canopy takes most of it.
