A short but steep 19km round trip, King's Peak makes a lovely day trip or overnight. As one of the tallest mountains in Strathcona Park, King's gives a fantastic view!

Mount Myra
Backpacking

Mount Myra

One of the most boring-access hikes in Strathcona Park leads to one of the best summit views on Vancouver Island. Mount Myra is certainly a summit to see as a day hike or easy overnighter!

Juan de Fuca Marine Trail
Backpacking

Juan de Fuca Marine Trail

47km of true West Coast wilderness, Juan de Fuca is often described as "West Coast Trail Lite", overshadowed by it's longer brother to the north. But this Island classic has some bite of its own; it may be tougher due to the terrain and lack of easier beach hiking stretches.

Crest Mountain Trail
Backpacking

Crest Mountain Trail

A smaller and unimposing mountain, Crest can easily be completed as a morning hike, though its true value is revealed on an overnight trip. From the ridge above the unnamed lake, sunset reveals the gorgeous north aspect of King's Peak bathed in a golden glow.
