Short and sweet at only 4km making it accessible for mostGreat views of the Straight of Georgia and neighboring mountains

The trailhead is located just off the Cypress Mountain lodge. It winds past old growth forest, and the Yew Lake Meadows.

After passing these features the trail turns into a series of switchbacks, gaining the elevation in the last 850m of trail.

Before you know it you are rewarded with a beautiful view!
