One of my favourite hikes to this day! incredible views! Fairly steady incline but nothing too difficult. Recommend starting a little earlier as it gets a lot busier later in the day.

Hiked this trail the first weekend of May and it was snowyyyyy. The trail isn't difficult (minimal elevation gain) but the path became more slippery later in the day as it warmed up and with more hikers. Proper snow hiking shoes and hiking poles would've made the hike much easier (especially on our feet). Despite wet and cold feet, the view at the end was incredible. On a clear day you have panoramic views of the islands of Howe Sound, Tantalus range and Vancouver Island.

This trail has undergone some major upgrades in the past few years (up to 2016) and is now a gravel path for much of the route. It used to be a miserable root- and rock-fest with a seriously high potential for injury. It's a much more pleasant experience now, if a little boring, and passes through some lovely old-growth hemlock forest. Note there are no water sources along the way so take all you need. Note that in the winter the route crosses a big avalanche path that should only be crossed if the conditions are appropriate. This is unpatrolled backcountry - you should be prepared for self rescue.
