South Lynn Peak: Intermediate+

Why we picked it

Once hikers leave Lynn Loop and start on the Lynn Peak trail, they will quickly be met with a trail of softball sized rocks, so good hiking boots are advised - especially on the descent. There are several viewpoints along the way but they are mostly obscured by trees. At the end of this part of the trail, you do get a nice view of the greater Vancouver area on a clear day with a few comfortable places to rest. After this stop, users will now move to the beautiful Lynn Ridge trail which is very lightly traveled, lush, and green. **Difficulty, Distance, and Elevation:** Intermediate+, 11.5 km trail (out and back), 830 meters of elevation gain **Meeting At:** Kilmer Park, North Vancouver **Parking:** Yes **Transit Access:** Yes **Recommended Gear:** 1. Hiking Boots or Hiking Shoes 2. Hiking Pack or Backpack 3. 2 or more liters of water + Lunch + Snacks 4. (If raining): Rain Jacket
