Description

The Riverside/Farside Loop is one of the most popular day hikes to explore the stunning Whistler Interpretive Forest.

Rushing waters, lush forests, and a suspension bridge make this one of the top must-do hikes if planning a trip through the area.

The entire hike is easy overall, but those newer to hiking may consider it more difficult.

The terrain tends to be non-technical, though mud is always an option with most trails in this region. Enjoy the loop clockwise or counter-clockwise beginning near the Sea to Sky Highway, and note that leashed dogs are welcome to accompany their owners.
