As a family, we will often travel to the Nordegg area to check out all of the different hiking trails and beautiful views.

This past weekend, we were too busy to drive far away so we decided to check out Jarvis Bay Provincial Park right here in Sylvan Lake. We were not disappointed!!

If you take highway 20 and head north of Sylvan, turn off at Township Road 392. There is a public parking spot just to your left (Across from Sylvan Storage). This parking area is the kick off place for many trails that you can walk in the area. The trails are well marked and eventually you will end up in the Jarvis Bay Provincial Campground area.

This time of the year, the views are amazing with the leaves changing colours and the sun shining off the lake.

You don't have to travel far to get exercise and a great hike.
