Steep ridgeline hike with rocky outcrops, a narrow gorge (Barrett Chute) and sweeping views over Calabogie Lake and the Ottawa Valley. Excellent for sweeping landscapes, autumn foliage, long-exposure water shots at the chute and dramatic skies at sunrise/sunset. Trailhead parking is on Barrett Chute Rd (no gate; small lot), moderate scramble sections—wear boots. Best visits: golden hour, clear mornings for valley light, or after rain/snow for textured water and ice. Respect Indigenous place-name
