Created in 2019, this winter-only new snowshoe/fat bike trail is named after Shinrin-yoku and parallels Kovach Cross-Country Ski Trail. This short trail travels along the southern edge of the Ribbon Creek escarpment, thick woods occasionally give way to offer open views of Mount Allan before plunging back into deep forested cover. When combined with Ribbon Creek, Link and Studless it forms an approximately 5 km winter loop.
