Ghost Public Land Use Zone | Cochrane, AB

Bring your hiking gear and explore a little-known hidden area with meadows, mixed forests, fish-carrying streambeds, and wetlands.
The Ghost/Waiparous Region has a poor reputation because of heavy and poorly controlled OHV use, but this is an opportunity to see the quiet beauty of this area. The fall foliage of the trees and the meadows should be at their peak.
Led by Heinz Unger

About the Coordinator: Heinz has lived in the Ghost Valley for 25 years, enjoys hiking the backcountry and still finds new trails (with the help of other old timers).
