Nub Peak is a mountain offering an iconic Canadian Rockies view. The view from the summit of the small sub-peak is one of the most widely shared photographs of the Canadian Rockies. The trail to the summit is known for its steep incline and rocky terrain, but the reward at the top is totally worth it—panoramic vistas of the surrounding peaks and valleys. It's a must-do for anyone looking for a memorable adventure in the mountains! The hike is only accessible for those in the Assiniboine area, so you'll either need to stay at the lodge or camp at a nearby campground.
