INTERMEDIATE TO DIFFICULT HIKE
PLEASE READ: I am giving preference to people who have hiked with me before and who can maintain a moderate pace with significant elevation gain.
Join us as we hike to Tunnel Bluffs from Lions Bay. We should have a spectacular view of Howe Sound from the viewpoint. I plan on spending 1-2 hours at the top. Sections of the hike will be quite steep. Should be a great day!
Length: 13 km round trip
Elevation Gain – 520 metres
Hiking time – 4-5 hours
