Trans Canada going West to Hwy 40 going south. Take a right turn onto hwy 742 into Peter Lougheed Park, but stay straight after that going towards Kananakis Lakes. Take left turn into Elkwood Campground. Follow signs going into the D-Loop. Park near the outhouse in between sites 114 and 115. There is a little sign pointing to a hiking trail. Just go down that hill and the trail sign is right there.
Experience:
This hike is full of lots of signs and is a very easy walk. There is lots of meadows and it was very green and lush with loads of flowers! Marl lake is very beautiful, and the water is very clear and clean which was very nice to look at. We met a very nice lady that took our picture and that was nice. Other than that lady there wasn't many people that were on the trail which was nice, because we got to hear a loon sing and that was the first time I had ever heard one sing.
