About Heiko's Trail
One of Fernie's most beloved big alpine hikes, the classic 20km Heiko’s Trail to Island Lake Lodge was built by one of Fernie’s renowned residents, Heiko Socher and finished in 2003. It is located in a backcountry wilderness area with abundant wildlife, and some of the most spectacular scenery in the Rockies.
