This entrance is just under 1 km. north on Highway 6 from the tiny town of Slocan Park, near the southern end of the rail trail.
The
Slocan Valley Rail Trail comprises 50 km. of what was once the Slocan Valley Railway, running from the CPR mainline at South Slocan in the south to Nakusp on Upper Arrow Lake in the north. The Rail Trail runs up the Slocan Valley alongside the Slocan River to Slocan City on Slocan Lake. The Slocan River flows southerly down the valley and empties into the Kootenay at Shoreacres, south of the southern trailhead.
