SUMMARY:Battle River (A60) to Schnee Hill - Tentative
DESCRIPTION:This hike of 10.4 km is along the stunning Battle River. This huge river valley was created at the end of the last ice age when the melt water that created Lake Edmonton broke through the ice and drained the huge lake in just a few days. The pictures from May 24th\, 2026. \n\n\n\nWe’ll be starting from the “A60” at about 10 a.m. From Highway 13 take the ‘South Bittern Lake Road’ for 5½km – “A60” is ~300m after crossing bridge just before turn going back uphill. Please park before the row of trees\, ~200m from the bridge (without blocking the farm road) to allow vehicles to make it through the turn safely. \n\n\n\nIf you are new to WTA hikes\, then you should visit the Guided Hikes webpage for essential information. For further information specific to this hike\, refer to The Waskahegan Trail Guide Book\, pages 48-49\, or contact the Hike Leader\, TBD\, \n\n\n\nHere are the write-ups from previous hikes on this section: \n\n\n\n\nMay 2026\n\n\n\nOctober 2025\n\n\n\nOctober 2019\n\n\n\nOctober 2017\n\n\n\nOctober 2016

SUMMARY:Gwynne Section - Tentative
DESCRIPTION:The huge valley starting at Gwynne and containing the Battle River as it flows eastward across Alberta\, was created in a few days. At the end of the last ice age\, glacier water trapped by ice formed huge Lake Edmonton.

The pictures from May 4th\, 2025. \n\n\n\nThe hike will leave from A57 on Highway 822 at about 10:00 a.m.. Participants should proceed there directly on their own\, but should check the website prior to departure in case of a change. \n\n\n\nIf you are new to WTA hikes\, then you should visit the Guided Hikes webpage for essential information.

SUMMARY:East Battle River (Duhamel) to Rest & Be Thankful Hill - Tentative
DESCRIPTION:The hike follows the Battle River east towards Stoney Creek and Camrose. It starts by following the river\, low in the valley across open grassland\, but eventually winds its way up out of the valley\, stepping over a field of crocuses\, then into woods and gulleys\, and ending at the top of “Rest & Be Thankful” hill. There we stop to eat our lunches\, thankful for the spectacular views. \nWe’ll meet at the trail head Duhamel (Ross Flats) Campground (at Range Road 212C just off Highway 21 & the campground is no longer in operation).
