Lac du Bois Tower Loop Description
The Lac du Bois Tower Loop is a fun outdoor adventure that will take you through the undulating landscape to the northwest of the city with some amazing views across the valley. Setting out from the trailhead, make your way west and head right at the fork to begin your loop through the rolling green hills that characterize the landscape. The trail will follow a wide loop around the hilltop tower to your left as you head north along the creek.
