Trail runners may sign up for one of two FREE trail runs in the mountains near Port Alberni to celebrate International Trails Day on Saturday, June 1st.  Both runs start and finish at the junction of Anderson Rd. and Ship Creek Road.

Both courses are on the Alberni Inlet Trail. They start with a 200m climb to a spectacular lookout, which offers views over the Alberni Canal and across to the snow-capped peaks of Strathcona Park, then descend along a forest trail to the inlet.
