Participant Information

This is a challenging and technical hike that follows a steep, direct route to the summit of the Sea to Sky Gondola. The trail includes scrambling, and requires the use of ropes and ladders in some sections. From the start, you'll gain elevation quickly, and the climb demands sustained effort throughout.

Expect a strenuous ascent over rugged terrain. Depending on pace and fitness, it typically takes 3 to 5 hours to reach the summit.

At the top, we’ll take a break to enjoy the views and grab a snack or coffee at the lodge. You’ll then have the option to take the gondola down or hike back down, depending on the group’s energy.

We can organize carpool in the forum.
