PUMP PEAK

Mount Seymour trail offers three different peaks of stunning views. These peaks are commonly referred to as Pump Peak, Tim Jones Peak, and Mount Seymour Peak. While Pump Peak and Tim Jones Peak can be destinations of their own, it is most common to hike to the third and final peak, the summit of Mount Seymour.

From the summit of Mt. Seymour there are views of Vancouver, the Lower Mainland, the Indian Arm and of what appears to be a never-ending stretch of coastal mountains. On a clear day you can even see Vancouver Island.

As these incredible views are available on a moderately difficult hike and from an easily accessible trailhead, Mount Seymour is one of the most popular North Vancouver hiking spots. As such, be prepared for crowded trails if going on the weekend. 

Because Mount Seymour is such a popular hike, the trail is well marked and staying on track is relatively easy as long as you follow the signs, tree-markers, and rocks marked with orange paint. That said, there are numerous side trails on Mt. Seymour, so always keep a keen eye out for trail markers to make sure you’re staying on the main route.
