Sawdust Trail
is located in Strathcona Provincial Park in Central Vancouver Island.
Named informally by hikers because it is built up with wood chips,
this 2.9-km trail from Paradise Meadows winds gently through rolling
meadows to bring walkers of almost any ability to Lake Helen Mackenzie.
Follow the lakeshore trail eastwards (i.e. to the left) that leads
to the west side of Battleship Lake where you join the main trail
back to Paradise Meadows.
This pleasant loop requires about 3 hours, excluding rest stops.
From Courtenay
take the public road to Mount Washington's nordic ski parking lot,
and the start of trail, a distance of approximately 26 km.
