Thinking about hiking this spring?
22 April, 2026
Both Sea to Summit and The Climb are dry, cool, and freshly maintained, making for excellent early-season hiking conditions.
How do the two hikes compare?
Sea to Summit: Longer, steady climb with mixed terrain and a Howe Sound viewpoint midway
The Climb: Shorter, steeper, and more intense with ropes, ladders, and scrambling from the start
Are these hikes suitable for beginners?
No, neither trail is beginner-friendly. Both require good fitness, and The Climb adds a technical element that makes it more demanding. Expect a solid leg burn either way.
Which hike should you choose?
Choose Sea to Summit if you want a long, scenic grind with varied terrain
Choose The Climb if you want a short, intense, technical push
Either way, you’re getting prime early-season hiking conditions!
