Route Description for Pender Hill Trail
Although short, the Pender Hill Trail is a fairly steep climb up to a viewpoint that will reward hikers that make it there with amazingly scenic views along the coast. Even so, the trail is very well-maintained and can be completed by beginner hikers and families that take their time along the trail. Setting out from the trailhead, the route climbs uphill through a beautifully forested trail that will provide some protection against the sun on your uphill climb. Eventually, you will break out of the tree cover and arrive at the rocky bluff with views along the Sunshine Coast that stretch out across the Strait of Georgia to Texada Island. After enjoying the views and having a quick snack, make your way back through the forest to return to the trailhead.
