Begbie Creek Trail is a short easy-going 2 kilometre hiking trail leading to a crashing waterfall, Upper Arrow Lake and mountain climbing opportunities. Along the trail there are some off-shoot trails on your left leading to popular bluffs often frequented by climbers. Bring your gear or, if you do not climb, binoculars and spot the climbers on the rocks!

The popular wilderness trail is located south of the community of Revelstoke, British Columbia, Canada on the west side of Upper Arrow Lake. The Begbie Creek Trail is a multi purpose trail used by hikers, mountain bikers, mountain climbers and dog walkers. It is important to respect each other on the trail, as it can get busy.

From the gravel parking lot, the path starts out as an old access road and then quickly starts downward toward the creek's edge, at which time it converts to a single track route. The forested trail follows a hard packed earthy path, spotted with exposed tree roots and boulders. Bring good foot wear, as the rocks and trail can get really slippery in some sections because of the moisture and mist thrown onto the trail by Begbie Creek.

On your right there are some unmanaged paths leading to the creek. Some provide safe views of the creek, others are just a waste of time. Stay on the creek trail, it will take you to the connecting trail leading to Begbie Falls, Upper Arrow Lake and a viewing platform looking out over a crashing waterfall.

The Begbie Creek Trail is part of a small network of trails in the area used by mountain bikers, hikers and cross country skiers. The trail network connects to Hwy 23, the MacPherson Mountain Trails and the Begbie Falls FSR (Forest Service Road).

How to Get to Begbie Creek Trail:

Follow Highway 23 south from Revelstoke, BC for about 9 kilometres. Keep an eye out on your left (east side of the highway) for a small gravel parking lot. Driving from Revelstoke the trailhead sign is not easily seen. So be keen and keep a look out. Enjoy eh!
