Kinney Lake Trail.

At the start of October, Martin's mother, uncle and brother visited us and the Rockies. Apart from showing them some of my favourite hikes around Banff & Canmore, we were lucky enough to join them up north in Jasper for a few days. On our last day we visited the Kinney Lake Trail in Mt. Robson Provincial Park, just across the border to British Columbia. It was a totally different world to the hikes I'd been doing further south—full of lush forest, moss, large toadstools and mushrooms and maple leaves growing in wild abandon.

The Kinney Lake trail forms the start of the Berg Lake trail, one of the most iconic multi-day hiking trails in the Canadian Rockies. I look forward to returning to this next summer for my first multi-day adventure.
