crack trail

The Crack Trail follows an old logging road before its rocky inclines grow steeper as the trail progresses. Hikers can snack on wild blueberries along the trail before reaching the unforgettable ridge summit three to four hours later.

At the top of a breathtaking lookout point, hikers are treated to a truly epic panorama: The La Cloche mountain range, vibrant pine forests and deep glacial lakes shimmer under big Killarney skies. Don’t forget your camera—this is an iconic view that you’ll want to remember.

The parking lot for this hike can be quite difficult to find as there is no signage on Hwy.637. The location of the parking lot can be found on the northern side of the highway (left-hand side if driving from the George Lake campground – KPP main office). It is approximately 7km east of George Lake campground and 1.5km west of Carlyle Lake Access Rd. Take a look at a map before heading out for the day.
