Mount Lincoln Trail Description
The Mount Lincoln Trail is a moderate hiking route north of Hope, BC that climbs up this steep and rugged peak to reveal scenic views of the valley and the Fraser River. At only 1.5mi, this is a short hike to the summit; however, the 1791ft of elevation gain along the route packs a real punch.
As you climb uphill, you will come across a few short scrambles, as well as some roped sections to aid in your climb. Of the three roped sections, the last is the most intimidating. Take your time. Once you reach the summit of Mount Lincoln, you will have spectacular views of the surrounding area and ample room to explore the peak in search of the perfect viewpoint. This trail is ideal for a quick and fun outdoor excursion in the Fraser Valley.
