Northern Loop
It is a 30 to 50 minute walk depending how often you stop to ponder the sights.
It is easy to walk and you pass the detour off to the "Twister". If you go to the Twister you can rejoin the Northern Trail without doubling back.
7 - Go clockwise. Seems that the grades are a bit easier but it is all easy.

Eastern Loop -
3 - Clockwise starting near the Lonely Giant and going south to outside the boundaries. On the loop back there is a point where you can cut over to the powerline and another where you can head down to the Sechelt Heritage Forest. Good trip for a half hour in the Grove seeing the Giant and a nice walk.

Sechelt Vista
5 - CLOCKWISE -- Clockwise route starts on the Main trail BEFORE you get to the Ancient part of the Grove. An easy walk although some real care should be exercised coming down the narrow gut on the way back. It rejoins the main trail north of the wetlands.
Starts just out of the loop in the Ancient Grove and is well marked.
