Big Larch Nature Trail

The Big Larch Nature Trail borders the east shore of Seeley Lake adjacent to the Big Larch Campground just north of the town of Seeley Lake. The beachside path meanders along the lake through a mature stand of old larch trees and riparian vegetation. The trail returns through the woods with moist, rotting stumps and trees draped in lichen. A self-guided interpretive pamphlet (available at the trailhead) describes the tree species, flora and wildlife. Beautiful views of the Mission mountain range can be seen across Seeley Lake from the trail.
