Claymine Low Mobility Trail
Claymine is a gentle forest circuit around a large boulder left by glaciation, west of Quesnel. The regional district describes approximately 1 km of low-mobility trail, with an accessible picnic table on the route and an accessible outhouse and information kiosk at the start. Birdlife, including a heron nesting area, is part of the appeal; give nesting birds space.

Full route notes
The signed low-mobility route enters the forest, circles the large glacial boulder and returns to its starting area. Use the kiosk map to remain on that approximately 1 km circuit rather than assuming surrounding tracks have the same surface or grade. The district characterizes the grade as gentle and identifies the picnic table as an intermediate resting place. Published accessibility describes the designed trail; it does not confirm that current mud, snow or fallen branches have been cleared.
The way back
The district describes a roughly 1 km loop.
Accessibility
Gentle accessible trail; accessible outhouse and picnic table.
