About Giant Cedars Boardwalk
The Giant Cedars boardwalk is in Mount Revelstoke National Park, beside the Trans‑Canada Highway east of Revelstoke. It crosses a section of inland temperate rainforest of British Columbia, a rare wet forest ecosystem far from the coast, fed by mountain rain and snow.
The roughly 500‑meter path threads among western red cedars more than 500 years old, with wide moss-covered trunks, ferns and streams. Interpretation panels explain the forest cycle, including fallen trees that serve as nurseries for new plants.
The boardwalk is level and accessible, with short steps in places. Beside it is a picnic area under the trees.
