Beth Lake is a less-busy hike along the Sea to Sky corridor which starts near the Furry Creek Golf Course.
The main draw to this hike is the scenic Beth Lake, which is surrounded amphitheatre-style by tall, jagged peaks. Another nice thing about this hike is that it is less often frequented than many others in the area.
The Squamish Smoke Bluffs Park has a network of trails used to access different rock-climbing routes. There are over 400 granite climbing routes within the park! But the trails within the Smoke Bluffs also make for a fantastic hike.
Smoke Bluffs Park, established in 2006, has scenic and peaceful trails which offer great lookouts over Squamish and Howe Sound.
Petgill Lake is a terrific day-hike in Squamish off the Sea to Sky Highway, near Murrin Provincial Park.
Petgill Lake is a small, scenic lake, perfect for a summertime dip. Just beyond the lake awaits a lookout over Howe Sound down below. While the view isn’t as dramatic as The Chief or Tunnel Bluffs, it is still awe-inspiring.
The Murrin Park Loop Trail (also called the Quercus Trail) is located in Murrin Provincial Park, Squamish. Murrin Park is a popular spot for swimming, fishing, and rock climbing. The Murrin Park Loop Trail takes you to some incredible viewpoints, including Quercus Viewpoint and Jurassic Ridge. The view of Howe Sound has been compared to that of the view the Chief gives you, but from a lower elevation and with less effort.
Crooked Falls is an incredible waterfall along the Sigurd Creek Trail in Upper Squamish. The trail is a peaceful and moderately challenging trek through the forest. The Sigurd Trail reaches Crooked Falls at around 490 m elevation. You get some unique views of the waterfall as Sigurd Creek tumbles down the mountain, in a crooked fashion.
