The Best Vancouver Hiking Trails
Iceberg Lake is a popular day-hike in Whistler. The hike up to Iceberg Lake follows 19 Mile Creek, which originates at Iceberg Lake.

The Squamish Smoke Bluffs Park has a network of trails used to access different rock-climbing routes. There are over 400 granite climbing routes within the park! But the trails within the Smoke Bluffs also make for a fantastic hike.
Smoke Bluffs Park, established in 2006, has scenic and peaceful trails which offer great lookouts over Squamish and Howe Sound.

Neck Point Park is a popular area for walking and scuba diving in Nanaimo. The ocean side park features several beautiful beaches and scenic trails through Garry Oak groves.
The 36-acre park gets its name from the unique neck-shaped point that juts out between Indian and Last beaches.
One of the great things about living north of the 49th parallel is the long summer days. During the summer solstice near the end of June, the sun doesn’t set until 9:21 pm!
With short summers, but long days, it’s understandable you might want to sneak in a quick hike after work to shake off the stress of the work day.

Colony Farm has a large network of trails that weave through the park and along the Coquitlam River. The park features large open fields, hedgerows, and has plenty of wildlife including over 200 species of birds.
