From the mile 39 Glacier Highway trailhead the trail crosses muskeg and old-growth forest, passes beaver ponds and an uplift meadow, and reaches Berners Bay after about two miles. A trail or rocky beach scramble continues 1.4 miles to Point Bridget. Watch for seals, sea lions, humpback whales, eagles and loons; black and brown bears use the park. In winter the meadows and open forest are good for skiing and snowshoeing.
