Just off the scenic Duffey Lake Road, you'll find a must-do short hike to one of the best views in the area. After parking in the gravel pullout, carefully cross the highway to the unmarked trailhead. The path starts flat before a brief, steep climb rewards you with a breathtaking panorama of the iconic U-shaped highway bend framing the brilliant turquoise waters of Seton Lake. The whole trip, from car to viewpoint and back, takes most people about 30 to 45 minutes, making it the perfect stop to stretch your legs and capture an unforgettable photo.
