Trail Overview

The Seton Ridge Road is accessed off of the Duffy Lake Highway which is one of the most scenic drives in the province of BC. Once off the highway, there is a significant climb in the first few miles which can be narrow, steep, and very risky if not an experienced driver. The route improves once you reach the top and start to decent down the back side of the mountain towards the lake. There are sensitivities in this area between private property owners and Indigenous Communities. There are a few spurs to explore but mind the gates in the area. The route connects to a small spur road that can provide access to the middle section of Seton Lake which is only boat accessible other than the one access point.

The way up from Sea to Sky can be a bit stressful due to trail width and the open space looking all the way down as you are climbing, but the lake side has lots of vegetation along the trail so you don’t notice the elevation as much. It’s not a very technical trail but I’d recommend at least LT tires as the FSR from Hwy99 gets a lot of rockfall so could slice through light tires. The lake side has some fairly deep water erosion channels but if you have a narrow vehicle or enough driving experience, you’d likely be able to do this in a fairly low clearance vehicle.
