Moe’s Canyon Trail Description
Hiking the Moe’s Canyon Loop is an awesome way to get out and explore the natural beauty of the Kimberley area. The trail sets out from the Kimberley Nordic Club and heads southwest through some light tree cover before meeting up with a small creek. The trail follows the creek south to Iker’s Landing, a solid picnic spot with some nice views looking across the valley to the Rocky Mountains. From there, follow the loop to the southwest, before it turns back towards the north for the return leg of the hike. Along this last stretch, you will make your way past several rock falls that you can explore before arriving back at the trailhead and your parked vehicle.
