Gorgeous viewpoint of Nelson. Similar to the Grouse Grind. Took about 36min to get to the top. Near the end of the hike, there are two path options: Easy or More Difficult. We went with the Easy trail. There were a couple of benches there and lots of different spots to chill and look at the scenery. Spent about 30min there before coming down, which took almost as long, but I have bad knees. Parking along the side of the road. Wasn’t crowded when we went on a Monday evening. Would factor about 1.5 hours for the whole hike and chill time up top. Would recommend going for beers after at Backroads or Torchlight.
Awesome hike, trails are well kept, i would recommend donating to the organization that takes care of this trail. There are different routes available.
Great easy hike with fabulous views from the top. Path is gravelly so make sure you have good treads on your shoes. Couple of benches on top make for a wonderful picnic with a view.
Good challenging hike but not too overwhelming. They supply walking poles at the base of the trail for the tourists...we used them anyway. About a 45min hike up with multiple trails available based on difficulty level. The view at the top really is worth it. A must do when visiting Nelson!
Great little hike! We saw lots of different reviews on the difficulty of this hike. I would call it a moderate hike. But the steepness is not as extreme as I've read. We hiked with two 4 year olds and two 7 year olds. All did great. I've included some pics of the actual trail as there is plenty of the view from the top
An excellent Spring, Summer and Fall hike close to the mountain town of Nelson, BC. A short, steep but well maintained grind takes you to a rock outcrop overlooking Nelson. A bird's eye view without flying! For the more adventurous the trail continues higher to a "flag pole" lookout and even farther to the radio tower at the top of the mountain. A great hike to do on a clear day. Popular with local and visitors alike. Don't forget to bring a camera.
Great trail for a quick payoff of views; well maintained and marked. Busy on nice days but plenty of parking at trailhead.
Really great hike that gets the heart rate up and rewards you with great views of Nelson below!
Great hiking! A little muddy and icy at this time of year but the view is very worth it. Well maintained trail.
Great hiking place! The view is pretty nice. Wear hiking shoes as it is steep in areas.
