This area is affectionately known as the Switch Back Trail. This trail is on shared property between Craigleith and Alpine and is also utilized by other snow sport traffic.

Trail #2:

This trail is marked with orange paint on the trees and begins at the base of Lower Parade on the north side. Follow Parade to the top of the North Chair staying to the left; from here you can pick up another trail, which runs along the ridge to Georgian Peaks and Lorree Forest .

Snowshoe Responsibility Code

Alpine offers three on-hill trails for snowshoe enthusiasts. For your protection and others, be sure to adhere to the following:

  • Snowshoeing is only permitted on the two designated routes found on the Alpine Ski Club snowshoe trail map.
  • When snowshoeing on a designated trail, you must stay to the side of the trail in a single file.
  • Snowshoeing on Alpine property is restricted to daytime operating hours to allow grooming and snowmaking crews full access to the hills after the lifts close.
  • Snowshoe trails are not patrolled. Let others know your route and expected time of return. When possible carry a cell phone or walkie talkie with you.

Snowshoeing is a two way street. Share with care!
