Anif Peak Trail Description
The hike up to Anif Peak is a steep uphill climb that will take you through some dense stretches of forest to arrive at the scenic lookout atop the summit. This area is perfect for winter activities including skiing and snowshoeing, however, it is just as enjoyable to complete it as a hike. Although the route is fairly steep and has an elevation gain of 4475ft, the terrain isn’t overly difficult, making this a moderately challenging hike.
The route utilizes a wide logging path for the lower portion of the hike before transitioning into more of a trail as you get further up the mountain. Along the way you will pass through beautiful stretches of forest and catch nice views across the valley. When you reach the summit of Anif Peak, you will be inundated with beautifully scenic views that overlook the rugged mountain peaks to the south, including Mount Harbich and Sky Pilot Mountain. For the downhill journey, follow the alternate path to the right that will take you over the summit of Mount Mulligan before reconnecting with the main trail and following it back to your parked vehicle below.
