Scenic Rides

Top 5 Hikes

Cypress Mountain offers a range of trails through coastal forest, subalpine meadows, and alpine lakes- all accessible from the resort. Trails vary in distance and difficulty, with options from 6 to 12 km. Dogs are welcome but must be kept on a leash at all times.

  • Bowen lookout.

    Bowen Lookout & Saint Marks Summit via Howe Sound Crest Trail

    12.2 km loop · Best July through November

    Follow the Howe Sound Crest Trail to two of the North Shore's most rewarding viewpoints. The route climbs through subalpine meadows with seasonal wildflowers and opens up to panoramic views of Howe Sound, Bowen Island, and the surrounding Coast Mountains. Suitable for hiking and trail running.

  • Eagleridge Buffs

    Eagleridge Bluffs via Black Mountain Trail

    8.2 km out-and-back · Best May through December

    A steady climb through coastal forest leads to the Eagleridge Bluffs, with views over Eagle Lake and out toward the Strait of Georgia. The trail is well-suited for hiking and nature exploration.

  • Cabin lake.

    Black Mountain & Cabin Lake

    6.0 km loop · Accessible year-round

    A versatile loop that passes through old-growth forest and along Cabin Lake- a scenic alpine lake popular for swimming in the summer months. Well-suited for hiking and trail running in summer, and snowshoeing in winter. In the summer guests can purchase a scenic ride lift ticket on the Eagle Express to ride up and down, eliminating the steep hike in and out.

  • Saint Marks summit.

    Saint Marks Summit

    10.5 km out-and-back · Best July through November

    One of the most accessible viewpoints along the Howe Sound Crest Trail with that stunning view North Shore locals know so well. The trail gains steady elevation through forest and subalpine terrain before arriving at a wide-open summit with views down Howe Sound and out towards the Gulf Islands. Wildlife sightings are common along the route.

  • View of Hollyburn peak

    Hollyburn Peak

    6.9 km loop · Accessible year-round

    A manageable loop to the summit of Hollyburn Peak, passing by Hollyburn Lake enroute. A solid year-round option- hiked in summer and snowshoed in winter, with views of the city and surrounding peaks from the top.
