    Tips

    October 22, 2025

    The Kings Peak Trail climbs over 1,700 meters in just 7.5 km, making it one of the steepest and most direct summit routes on Vancouver Island. It starts in old-growth forest and quickly transitions to subalpine meadows and rocky ridgelines. The final push follows Queen’s Ridge to the summit, with fantastic expansive views over Strathcona Park and the central island ranges.
