Mount Gardner Trail Head
Mount Gardner, the highest peak on Bowen Island, offers hikers panoramic views of Howe Sound, West Vancouver, and the Sunshine Coast. The trail to the summit is approximately 10 kilometers round-trip and is considered challenging due to its steep sections and varied terrain. Hikers should be prepared for a strenuous ascent, especially near the summit where a rope-assisted section aids in navigation.
The trailhead is located about 3 kilometers from the Snug Cove ferry terminal on Bowen Island. Visitors can reach the trailhead by walking or cycling from the ferry terminal. The hike typically takes between 3 to 5 hours to complete, depending on pace and trail conditions. It’s advisable to start early to ensure ample daylight for the journey.
