Brothers Creek Loop

Park on Millstream Road where there is only room for 4 or 5 vehicles at the trailhead, but lots of street parking available nearby. Enter through the gate at the top of the hill.The climb follows the Brothers Creek Fire Road climbing steadily for the first 2 miles (3 1/2 km) There are two quick side detours which are highlighted on this hike. They take you to two old-growth Firs and to the end of the upper terminus of the cable railway used in the logging operations located in this area in the 1920s.At the top of the Fire Road (it shrinks to singletrack in the last kilometre) there is an intersection with a wooden bridge. Cross the bridge and proceed down a very technical descent following the line of Brothers Creek. Within a few hundred meters a great view of the waterfalls appears. Continue down Brothers Creek Trail, then take the left onto Skyline Trail left after the helipad. Skyline Trail will put you back onto the Brothers Creek Fire Road about 500m before the entrance at Millstream Avenue.

An old incline cable railway, abandoned in 1926, can be found after about a mile of climbing.Many of the tree stumps remain with cuts in them for footholds for sawing. Debris remaining from the logging operation can be found if you wander slightly off the trail.
