Whistler~ Rohr Lake via Marriot Basin Trail: Intermediate

About the Hike

READ THE DESCRIPTION

This trail can be started from two different parking areas. The first is located right off the highway along the verified route. The second, a smaller lot about 2.5 km up the forest service road, has an outhouse and is generally accessible with a high-clearance vehicle.

The walk in from either point makes for a great warm-up. You’ll pass through a beautiful forest filled with mud, downed trees, and several creek crossings. Mud is one of the main challenges on this hike, so sturdy, water-resistant hiking boots are highly recommended. A short scramble over a boulder field later in the trail rewards you with stunning views of Rohr Lake and the surrounding mountains. Along the lake, you’ll find a few flat spots that are perfect for pitching a tent.
