Part sunset hike, part community gathering, Sunset Mission is all about getting outside, challenging yourself, meeting new people, and celebrating summer from one of the most beautiful viewpoints in Vancouver.
Our promise? An evening filled with movement, mountain views, music, community, and a sunset celebration you'll be talking about long after the season ends.
How It Works - Choose your own adventure:
Option 1 – Full Hike
Hike from the base of Cypress Mountain to the summit.
- 3.5 km
- 530 m elevation gain
- Approx. 1–1.5 hours
Option 2 – Half Hike (Chairlift Ticket Required)
Ride the Lions Chairlift and hike the final section to the summit.
- 1.3 km
- 175 m elevation gain
- Approx. 30–40 minutes
At the summit, our volunteer team will welcome you with your YETI cup and a photo opportunity overlooking Vancouver, the ocean, and the Coast Mountains at sunset.
After taking in the views, we'll make our way back to the top of Sky Chair for our mountain-top après celebration.
