Difficult - 5 km - 2.5 to 3 hours return - Steep forest path and road
This is one of our most challenging trails. The Goat Mountain Trail is a scenic hiking route giving access to the peak of Goat Mountain, featuring wildflowers and views of the North Fork Valley and Grand Forks. The 2.5 kilometre trail (one-way) climbs 500 metres through open meadows and forests, sometimes following old railroad, mining and logging access roads and trails. The trail is used in all seasons.
The trailhead parking area is 5.2 kilometres north of Highway 3 on the North Fork Road. Follow the trail up to the North Fork section of the Trans Canada Trail. Once you are at the TCT turn right (north) and you'll almost immediately come to the Goat Mountain trail heading up on your left.
