November 25, 2020November 6, 2020October 24, 2020Did this today even though it was snowing. It could be done without snow shoes. The trail goes through a gorgeous pine tree forest and gives beautiful views of Nelson along the way. It took us 1.5 hours roundtrip to complete it. Got us sweating too! Overall highly recommended.
September 28, 2020Nice quick hike, and brought the pup. Got the heart pumping on the way up, and had great views overseeing Nelson.
September 23, 2020Nice little huff and puff trail up. It took us 1.5 hours up and down. Wish we had better weather as it would have been nice to have continued on to flag pole and then the CBC tower. Branches at the top to sit back and enjoy the view. Poles are nice to have for the way back down.
September 10, 2020September 9, 2020Awesome and easy. Worth it for the excellent view of Nelson.
September 9, 2020August 31, 2020A great hike with a very rewarding view at the top! There are community hiking poles for you to use and return at the end. Definitely a moderate hike, lots of rocks / it’s an uneven trail so you have to watch your footing! Nice and shady until you get to the top.
August 24, 2020Fun little hike. Easily accessible from downtown Nelson. Nice views at the top. Good climb— gets the HR up!
August 23, 2020Love this hike. Gets the heart pumping with a stunner view. Always recommend this to anyone
August 23, 2020Steep and narrow but most hikers are mindful of social distancing guidelines. Nice views of BOB and Nelson. Go early in the morning because of the heat!

July 19, 2020Great 1 hour hike out and back. Unreal views of Nelson
July 4, 2020My first time on this trail and I enjoyed it. Made it to Pulpit rock which was definitely worth it. Amazing view of Nelson. short and steep and a great hike.
July 3, 2020good trail with scenic views. As stated earlier, the trail is very narrow so it makes it hard at some points to properly social distance, keep this in mind if you try and do it :)
April 7, 2020Smooth and cool climbing surface. Beginners paradise.
October 17, 2019Montée progressive. Randonnée le fuun et rapide en terminant le travail c’est parfait. Superbe viewpoint de la valley.
October 8, 2019It's an uphill hike but the view at the top makes it totally worth it!
August 25, 2019Great morning hike with my wife.
August 24, 2019Quick hike- good workout and beautiful view at the top.
August 16, 2019A nice hike if you don’t have much time to spare. 1.5hr up and back. Well maintained and easy to follow trail. Good elevation over a short distance means when you get to the top you will know you’ve had a workout without being exhausted.
July 31, 2019Lovely hike with a great view at the top. A good choice if you want to get your heart rate up and are short on time.
July 21, 2019A good workout, with the occasional glimpse of Nelson across the lake during a few breaks between the trees to entice you with the wonderful views once reaching the final destination. The trail is well-maintained, but some areas demand your attention as the footing can be tricky.
July 5, 2019Parts of the trail are step and rocky so I'd agree with the "moderate" rating. I used trekking poles. It was raining intermittently but there were some dry parts of the trail. The view at the top is great and there is a bench so you can take a well-deserved break before heading back down.
May 20, 2019Great hike but definitely challenging-pretty steep at points. Took us over an hour to get to the top. Amazing views once you're there!
January 22, 2019fun, easy, still gotta be in shape. running down is amazing. forest is beautifull and the view worth way more than the hike
