Linton's Trail is the main hiking route to the summit area of Mount Washington, following a former ski run up the mountain. The climb is steady from start to finish, gaining elevation quickly as the trail passes through alpine meadows and open slopes. As you ascend, views begin to open across Strathcona Provincial Park, with Mount Albert Edward and other rugged Vancouver Island peaks dominating the horizon. While relatively short, the trail packs a surprising amount of elevation gain into a few kilometres.
