Good challenging hike but not too overwhelming. They supply walking poles at the base of the trail for the tourists...we used them anyway. About a 45min hike up with multiple trails available based on difficulty level. The view at the top really is worth it. A must do when visiting Nelson!

Gorgeous viewpoint of Nelson. Similar to the Grouse Grind. Took about 36min to get to the top. Near the end of the hike, there are two path options: Easy or More Difficult. We went with the Easy trail.There were a couple of benches there and lots of different spots to chill and look at the scenery. Spent about 30min there before coming down, which took almost as long, but I have bad knees. Parking along the side of the road. Wasn’t crowded when we went on a Monday evening. Would factor about 1.5 hours for the whole hike and chill time up top. Would recommend going for beers after at Backroads or Torchlight.

Great little hike! We saw lots of different reviews on the difficulty of this hike. I would call it a moderate hike. But the steepness is not as extreme as I've read. We hiked with two 4 year olds and two 7 year olds. All did great. I've included some pics of the actual trail (as there is plenty of the view from the top)

Great trail for a quick payoff of views; well maintained and marked. Busy on nice days but plenty of parking at trailhead.

Great hiking place! The view is pretty nice. Wear hiking shoes as it is steep in areas.

A nice moderate hike. We did it as a family kids ranging from age 2 and 3 (on back carries) and others ages 9,12,13,15.It was fun and worth the views!We only went up to the pulpit rock and not to the flagpole.

Fun, easy hike with amazing views! I'm out of shape and it only took me 40 mins to the top. Be aware of conditions as a slide just took place, temporarily closing the trail. Slippery/ icy sections near the top when I went in early April.

An excellent Spring, Summer and Fall hike close to the mountain town of Nelson, BC. A short, steep but well maintained grind takes you to a rock outcrop overlooking Nelson. A bird's eye view without flying! For the more adventurous the trail continues higher to a flag pole" lookout and even farther to the radio tower at the top of the mountain. A great hike to do on a clear day. Popular with local and visitors alike. Don't forget to bring a camera."

Great easy hike with fabulous views from the top. Path is gravelly so make sure you have good treads on your shoes. Couple of benches on top make for a wonderful picnic with a view.
