Station Flats is located on the right hand side of the road past the Elbow River bridge and Allan Bill Pond Parking.
Trail Description:
From the parking lot ride to the SW corner to the trail entrance. The route can be ridden both ways but for the more moderate climb with a steep descent, ride counter-clockwise. At the first branch turn right and start a moderate climb towards the Ridgeback/Tom Snow junction. At the junction turn left and continue the steady climb. At the peak of the climb, you'll see a trail junction on your left. Follow this for a short distance to a lookout with a bench to rest your legs for the descent. Enjoy a quick descent back down to the Elbow Valley Junction Trail followed by a flat windy trail through an open meadow and old stand forest back to the parking lot. ![]()
