    Went up on a Saturday. First time at this ski resort. Parking is free, there is a shuttle on the bottom of the mountain for a small fee, if you choose not to drive up. They don't/couldn't keep up with the conditions? The parking lot is an ice rink. I wouldn't suggest bringing grandma or grandpa/ handicapped here. It's not wheelchair friendly. The cafeteria and restaurant is basic but very tasty. It is absolutely beautiful up here, the vibe is absolutely different from the Grouse and Cypress.

    Great hike with amazing views! Im always looking for hikes that I can so in less then a couple of hours, this is just perfect. It was pretty muddy when I went, but getting dirty is part of it, right? I went Monday morning and it was quite, only saw one other person going up. When I reached the top their were only 2 people, and they shortly left. I had the mountain all to myself. Peaceful!!!! I heard during the weekend especially summer months it gets busy. So I recommend going during the week. Highlights: Its free Free parking Well marked trail Nice view at top Warning lots of mosquitos in the summer!

    I love snowboarding and I have to say out of all the mountains Mt. Seymour would be the disappointing one. They don't have challenging runs or many runs compared to its competitor. Only thing i like is that every year they do Monday as ladies night. Which means ladies pay $5 or free to go in. But I have never done ladies night because it is a Monday and I am always busy on Mondays Came here snowshoeing with a friend. It was fun but we went more than half way and we saw a avalache warning sign and had to turn back because we were not equipped. There is not much to see in the snowshoe trail. But the good part is that because we came when 1 of the trail was closed, they gave us a 10% discount and we didn't even have to ask for it. I rented my snowshoe from them and the right feet wasn't working properly. it kept on coming loose. As well, when I got my pass they didn't tell me where I can get the hook to hook my day pass onto my jacket. So i ended up randomly sticking it somewhere.

    Gorgeous snowshoe trail

    Vancouverites are spoiled for choice in the mountain department, so there are a lot of differing opinions on where to go, but for a visiting flatlander without a car who's looking to spend an easy day in the mountains, with some beautiful views of Vancouver, Mt. Seymour is a great place to start. There is currently a shuttle bus that picks up twice daily just outside of the Rupert Skytrain stop. It's $8 CAD cash per way. Check Mt. Seymour's website for specific times, but note that there are only a few shuttles returning to Rupert throughout the day, otherwise the shuttle picks up/drops off at the less central Parkdale Community Centre location. The vehicle is a converted school bus, but it runs like a tank (which you want when it's winding through snowy precarious mountain roads). The region has recently had record once-in-a-decade snowfalls, so I wanted to try out the snowshoe trails. If you don't already have snowshoes, it's cheaper to rent them in town than on the mountain, but most businesses open too late to then catch the shuttle bus, so I ended up getting them on Mt. Seymour. As others have noted, you have to pay for a trail access pass along with your equipment rental. The total rental/trail pass combo will run you just under $30. They try to gauge the equipment return time to coordinate with sunset, so the later it is in the season, the longer you'll likely be able to use your rentals. The trail up to Dog Mountain was a good workout for a beginner snowshoer, if a bit sporty in places. The nature of the hikes is obviously contingent on the amount of snow that they have up there, so others could experience completely different conditions from the day I was there. The view on the summit of Dog Mountain opens out onto a comprehensive sweep of the city of Vancouver and its surroundings. I also tried out several trails on the other side of Mt. Seymour's snowboarding/skiing area. The routes were well marked, with maps and stakes posted at regular intervals. At times it was so quiet, with the snow muting all sounds, that I could virtually hear my heartbeat. Total magic. The noisy cafeteria-style food hut has all the usual fried and junky offerings like fries and chicken tenders, so bring snacks from home if you want some healthier and less pricey options.

    Several websites have listed the Mount Seymour hike (to the peak) as one of the "top ten" around Vancouver for SPECTACULAR, panoramic scenery of the lower mainland. It also listed the hike as "Intermediate" in difficulty. Having lived in Vancouver for 20 years and being a pretty experienced hiker, from the descript, I expected the vistas to knock me out of my hiking boots and onto my flat sorry excuse for an Asian ass. My formula for a good hike is simple - the beauty of the hike should meet or exceed my exertion level on the hike. Sorry, but I'm just selfish that way. Nothing pisses me off more than scrambling over boulders and rock faces, tripping over big tree roots, dehydrating in the searing heat without little opportunity for shade, sliding down slope after mountain of loose rocks, only to be met with pond after puddle of standing, muddy water that resembles a hippopotamus' wet dream of a mud hole, or sewage plant run off. The trail starts off innocently enough - on the easy side of moderate with moderate elevation punctuated by small snippets of sharper climbs. The terrain is also do-able - some larger and loose rocks. Dried-up creek beds are covered with little wooden bridge-ettes, which are all in good shape. A section of loose rock is even kept under control with some wire fencing. The trail is also well-maintained, cleared of foliage, with markers EVERYWHERE. You'd have to be an idiot-and-a-half to get hopelessly lost (and I'm the idiot to prove it). It's as if the trail maintenance people could read my mind - every time I thought, "Hey, where the @#*$&# am I?" another little orange marker or blue-felt tipped sign appears on a rock or a tree. I did this hike as a clueless and directionless woman and did not get lost once. The trail is 9km roundtrip with 450m elevation gain. For the first 2km or so, the hike is...how shall I put this - as boring as the top of Donald Trump's pasty bald head. (His toupee is much more enthralling.) With some Pacific Northwest hikes you can enjoy the stately evergreens flanking either side of the trail, wildflowers, or even berry bushes to munch on. Nothing like that here. Trail is mostly exposed and full of rocks and boulders, with the occasional tree root thrown in for good measure. Each step may also be a good climb up, sometimes requiring steady pacing or even hands. Despite this being one of the driest summers, the dirt on the ground was also curiously damp. At about 2.5km to 3.0km into the trail, the trail markers start getting spotty. This is unfortunate, as this is where the trail really gets down to business. Endless climbs then dips requiring very careful foot placement. Don't be lulled by the scant 450m gain, because this is a NET GAIN. There is a lot of unnecessary ups and downs on this trail. Did you hear a woman cursing up and down the Seymour trail on Thursday, July 30, then proclaim, "Bears, take me now! Serenity now!" That was me. There are two peaks before reaching Seymour - ones which overlook Indian Arm and the lower mainland - and both are are welcomed sight, especially compared to the bland rice cake boredom of the first 2kms. However - nothing to tip it off the scale of wowness for me. After the second peak and before Seymour a big sign tells you that things are going to get hairy after this point. By this they mean big boulders, narrow rocky paths that drop off on the other side. In dry weather, they were fine, but I could imagine that, in the rain and slick, this hike could be hell. I brought my 5lb (2.72kgs) DSLR and took less than 5 pictures, and this is an indication of how bland the hike was for me. If you're from a country where ISIS is a constant feature in your life, this hike will seem out-of-this-world for you. My memories are shin splints in both legs and thigh muscles which are sore even two days later. If you go, bring plenty of water (unless you want to get dysentery by venturing to drink from the puddles), have good hiking boots with stable ankle support. This is not mentioned in any of the sites I found online. This is a good workout, but so is the Marine Corps training program...and you get to meet a lot of cute guys in the Marine Corps, but I was the only one on the hike for most of the way up at 10am.

    Do it for the gorgeous view at the end. It's worth it!! This is about a 2.5 hour hike, branching off the Seymour main trail to the Dog Mountain Trail.On the way, you will pass by First Lake, a small lake that's an indicator of the beginning of the Dog Mountain trail. There's lots of tree roots and large boulders on the way, so there is some climbing involved. It wasn't too busy when we went, and there were a lot of families doing it. At the top, the view is stunning. There's smooth rocks up there for you to relax and perhaps enjoy some lunch/ snacks. I agree with Kat S that this was a very buggy trail. We were constantly followed by bugs, and the buzzing drove us crazy. Bring bug spray and sunscreen, and you should be all set for a spectacular view at the top!

    First Lake about 1 km in.

    The first time I attempted this hike it was rainy (warning sign 1) and all of Seymour was pretty much inside a cloud. I literally could not see 10 feet in front of me (warning sign 2). We got to the parking lot and there were absolutely no cars there (warning sign 3) except for one tourist who got out to take pictures. Pretty sure all she got were white and grey pixels in the photo. We went to get our Grouse Grind on instead. Fast forward two weeks later and we tried again. This time 30 degrees and not a cloud in sight. Thankfully most of the trail is shaded so even on a hot day it isn't too bad. I would rate the hike as easy as there is very little elevation gain. Much of the elevation gain is done in a vehicle before you get to the parking lot. The hike is more obstacle training as there are many roots, rocks and uneven surfaces to get through. It's a short hike to the lookout at only 2.5 km one way and takes approximately 45 minutes to an hour to get there. Perhaps budget 2.5 to 3 hours round trip. Once at the lookout you get great views overlooking Burnaby and Vancouver. When I went during the afternoon on a mid-summer day it was a bit hazy to see off in the distance. I think a sunset view would be absolutely stunning. Overall, it's a nice easy hike that anyone can do. Personally I enjoy more of a challenge/workout and it would have been nice if it were a tad less hazy but nonetheless still a gem that you have to do at least once. If I could, I'd give Dog Mountain 3.5 stars. Unfortunately I can't comment on snowshoeing the trail, but it would seem like a nice workout during the winter.

    Re: snowshoeing @ Seymour Great place to do some snowshoeing on the week-end. Feel free to bring your dog as well. People have let their dogs off-leash but there are park rangers that patrol the trails and you could be fined if they catch you! Unfortunately, if you are just doing snowshoeing, you are only able to park on the hill and not in the parking lots. Expect a 15-20 minute hike to the trails from your place on the hill. The earlier you go the better as you get a closer parking spot. After 10 am on the weekend you'll be hiking longer than that!

    Mt Seymour has excellent views of the city on a clear sunny day. You can also see heavily snow covered trees reminiscent of a Dr. Seuss world. I think the mountain could do better on its snowshoe rental procedure. Today, it seemed as if they were understaffed (but that could be because it was the day of New Year's Eve). I went in just after 2:30 to rent snowshoes just till 4:00, when they close. I had to pay for a rental & trail pass at almost full price $26. They didn't offer the option of snowshoe rentals without the trail pass. One trail is free to use, and since my friend had her own snowshoes, we planned to walk the free trail. Nonetheless, I still had to pay for a trail pass I didn't use. I recommend going to this mountain for its great location, trails and views. If skiing, it is worth your while for a day or evening. I've tried some green & blue runs here. If snowshoeing, it's better to bring your own pair & walk the free trail. Otherwise, make sure you come early enough to make your rental & pass worth the cost.

    Kennedy Falls - June 14, 2025.

    Kennedy Falls

    5.0(1 review)
    8.9 km

    The first and only time I have hiked to Kennedy Falls was in the summer of 2016, nine years ago…read more I've been wanting to go again, but unfortunately I never had the opportunity until yesterday (June 14, 2025). As nearly a decade has gone by, I didn't remember much about the hike except that it was fairly challenging because the terrain was quite rugged and technical with rocks and roots, there were logs to climb over, and I had to scramble up some short, but steep inclines. None of that has changed, but now along a short section of the trail (probably the part that I had to scramble up nine years ago), there is a chain to assist with climbing up and down. I had quite a bit of difficulty descending this portion of the trail (it was quite scary!), but it was fairly easy hiking back up. Until quite recently, I had no idea that Kennedy Falls was accessible by transit, and I organized a hike yesterday with my transit accessible hiking group. The #210 bus stops at Mountain Highway and Coleman Street, only about a ten minute walk from the entrance to the trails on Mount Fromme, although the walk up from the bus stop is quite steep, and I was huffing and puffing. (The walk from the bus stop was actually the steepest incline encountered on our entire hike. The hike, while difficult due to terrain, had minimal elevation.) The hike to Kennedy Falls, round trip, is 10km and about five hours. Hiking at a slow, relaxed pace, taking breaks (including 20 minutes at the falls and 10 minutes at the big Cedar tree, as well as other shorter breaks), the hike took six hours. To get to Kennedy Falls, you first hike along the Cedar Tree Trail. The first portion is quite easy and flat, then you eventually encounter logs, rocks, and the chain. After about 1.5 hours, you come to the big Cedar -- a HUGE tree that is estimated to be about 600 years old. Once leaving the Cedar, it takes about an hour to get to the falls, so a total of 2.5 hours from the beginning to the falls, one way. (The timing was also the same on the way back.) It was a great hike, and now that I know that it is transit accessible, I will be sure to go more often. As it can be quite wet and muddy, with numerous streams to cross, it is best to go during the summer when it's dry, so I likely won't be going in the spring, only summer and early fall. (Also due to the length of the hike, I prefer to go when the sun sets later.) Other things to note: the outhouses located at the start of the trail are still gendered (which makes no sense!), and the sign telling you not to throw pianos and other objects into the toilet is still there. There is also a water refill station at the entrance. Not that it matters to me, as I take transit, but parking there is difficult. A few of our group members drove, and they had trouble finding parking. Parking is free, but the parking lot is quite small, and Mount Fromme is very popular with mountain bikers (there are numerous mountain biking trails), so the parking lot was full at 10am. They were able to find parking on nearby side streets, but then had to walk 20 minutes up the steep hill (the bus stop was closer than where they parked). One person did manage to get a parking spot in the parking lot (after waiting 30 minutes), but it was only after we completed our hike that we noticed there was a three hour limit (thankfully he did not get a ticket). While transit is a pain in the ass (our bus was over ten minutes late!), it has its advantages. [Yelp collections: Hiking]

    Last year I discovered a hiking group that hikes in the Lower Seymour Conservation Reserve (LSCR)…read moreevery Monday morning for a couple of hours. Due to my school, I was only able to go on one hike with them last year as I found the group just before the fall semester started, but this year I've gone on half a dozen hikes with them and look forward to many more. There are 65km of hiking trails in the LSCR, ranging from easy (such as the Rice Lake Loop) to challenging, for more experienced hikers. There are several intermediate trails, including a portion of the Baden Powell trail, and with all the different trails, it is a great area to explore and your hike can range from an easy one hour walk to a hike of several hours -- there's something for everyone. The LSCR is located between Lynn Headwaters Regional Park and Lynn Canyon Park, so you can combine a hike in the LSCR with a hike in Lynn Headwaters or Lynn Canyon for more variety. Another great thing about the LSCR is that it is transit accessible! You can take the #227 or #228 bus, or take the #210 bus to Lynn Headwaters and walk about ten to fifteen minutes to LSCR. [Yelp collections: Hiking]

    This is the area that is on the other side of Lynn Valley Park. Had no idea this existed (or that…read moreit was technically a different park) until now. Parking is available in the nice large lot next to the water treatment centre. There are public washrooms here as well. Some of the trails here seem to be more like service roads. Very well maintained. There are plenty of bear warning signs too. Guess somebody got eaten at one point. Plenty of fellow hikers and dogs here for bears to snack on. I remember always seeing other people at some point. In other words, the place is pretty crowded during the summer months. The trails go quite a ways from here. Hikes can go from minutes to hours or days, depending on what one is looking for.

The original lighthouse was wooden and lit in 1875 - this current lighthouse was built in 1912 out of concrete on top of a massive granite boulder. It's still in use today although the light is now automated. You can't access the lighthouse itself - it's closed off by fencing. But there are some buildings surrounding the lighthouse with interesting info signs on the parts they played during WWII. There's also picnic tables if you need a rest or some snacks. The trail up to the lighthouse viewpoint are wide and very well maintained. The entire trail is a moderate loop just over 4 miles long with almost 450 feet elevation gain according to AllTrails. Due to time constraints, we only hiked from the parking lot to the lighthouse viewpoint- it was pretty easy and it's less than a mile to the lighthouse with just over 100 feet of elevation gain. So round trip we did less than 2 miles. There's a large parking lot at the trailhead that's pay-to-park. We paid via QR code on one of the signs easily - we had good cell signal. It was just over $10CAD for about 2 hours so very reasonable.

    Such a cool spot to check. We visited in Mar h on a gloomy day. I must say it is self guided and…read morethere was not much going on at the time. That being said, the views are great and it is definitely educational. You can arrive by car or by foot if you hike down from the Capilano River Park

    I haven't been here in ages and was fortunate enough to visit this place again! AMAZING AMAZING…read more AMAZING This place is beautiful and fits in seamlessly with the natural surroundings. The hatchery was built to help with the declining salmon stocks, but it is still a working facility up to this day! On the visitor's side, this is an amazing place to visit, re-visit and bring kids, relatives, and friends. The hatchery is FREE and..... during the right time, preferably fall, you can see juveniles to adults. A lot of them! It is an amazing and wonderful sight to literally see the coho and chinook struggle against the current as they jump up each step to their final resting place. The surrounding water and just watching the salmon is very peaceful and relaxing......at the same time, you want to cheer for each salmon as they make it to the next step! There's benches around the place, washrooms, and a parking. There's also a trail from the Cleveland dam to the hatchery. Salmon Times: Chinook adults (October to November) Coho adults (June to November) Steelhead adults (March to April) Coho juveniles (all year) Chinook juveniles (March to May) I definitely will be back :)
