Falls Lake is a short, well-marked trail that follows a creek through forest, crossing small wooden bridges. It ends at the lakeshore, with Nak Peak rising beside the water.
Zoa Peak climbs a forested ridge in the Coquihalla Summit area, with steep, exposed stretches that feel hot in summer. The payoff is wide views of Zum, Thar, and Nak Peaks from the top.
Chilliwack Lake's quieter south end offers an easy walk along an old logging road to a sandy beach with views of Mount Lindeman and MacDonald Peak. The trail continues to the calm Chilliwack River, where a hidden beach sits near the water.
Frosty Mountain is a demanding climb through forest and switchbacks into the alpine, ending at a first-peak viewpoint over the surrounding Coastal Mountains. Loose rock scrambling is needed near the top, and clear days offer some of the park's best views.
A flat, forested loop around Lightning Lake in Manning Park, with easy footing and frequent glimpses of the water. The highlight is the Rainbow Bridge, which spans the narrow channel joining the two lake sections.
Wide forest trail linking a string of lakes named for weather, including Lightning, Flash, Strike, and Thunder. Flash Lake offers the best glimpses of water through the trees, and the mostly flat route makes it a manageable outing.
Climbs through shaded forest and alders, crossing a rebuilt log bridge over Nesakwatch Creek. The highlight is the Propeller Cairn at the base of Mount Slesse, where a plane propeller piece rests among rocks, with views across the valley.
Three Brothers Mountain's highlight is the meadows and ridges with wide views toward the Brothers. Early sections drop steeply through alpine forest with few views, and the return climbs back up.
