Get ready for a classic Fraser Valley challenge that rewards you with absolutely stunning views. The trail to Elk Mountain is a popular but demanding 8km round-trip hike that starts right from the car park and wastes no time heading up. You'll climb relentlessly through a beautiful forest before the path breaks out onto an open ridge, where the panoramic views of Chilliwack, Cultus Lake, and the surrounding peaks will truly take your breath away.

If you don’t want to do the whole 8km but still want the view - we got you 👀 there’s a secret FSR that takes you part way up the trail and cuts off a big chunk of distance and elevation. Park at these co-ordinates - you’re welcome 😉 (49.1115413, -121.8298616)
