Overview

This is a moderate out and back trail to Karst Spring in Spray Valley Provincial Park.

This trail goes by Watridge lake and Karst Springs.

Getting Started

Park at the mt. Shark parking lot and rake the trail next to the sign (same as mt. Assiniboine trail). The trail is fairly flat and very wide to the lake. Good signage along the way. Turn left at the map sign when you're almost to the lake.
Stop for a swim in the clear lake then head up the rest of the trail to the spring.
Short and easy hike!

June 4, 2019. Trail completely dry, lake good for jumping in! The spring is only about a km past the lake and is uphill but I wouldn't say it was steep. Easy trail to follow.

Watridge Lake to Karst Springs

Kelsie, Belinda, Candice Go back in the summer, would be pretty Hike to Watridge not bad. Hike from lake to Karst is uphill, and Trail is skinny. But in the summer, the moss and water falling would be worth it
