Trail Description

The Lighthouse Trail Loop is a mere 15-minute walk from the Edisen Fishery, a restored fishery that functioned for approximately 50 years, to the 1855 lighthouse. Built as a beacon of hope during the mining era the lighthouse then became a residence for several fishery families. The trail's return route to Edisen Fishery affords views of Middle Islands Passage.

Directions: From Daisy Farm Campground, Paddle from the campground or take a guided day trip from one of the visitor centers.

View the restored Edisen Fishery and the Rock Harbor Lighthouse along this short half mile walk.
