Most visitors admire The Lions from afar—but few ever stand in their shadow. This hike offers not just a physical challenge, but a transformative experience: the feeling of earning your place among giants. Your guided trek ensures safety, pacing, and deep local knowledge as we climb through forest, ridge, and rock to Vancouver’s most legendary peaks. Unlike the crowded Grouse Grind or Capilano trails, this is raw, alpine British Columbia at its most dramatic—no fences, no gondolas, no lines. Just effort, awe, and elevation
