Dog Mountain

A very nice hike in both summer and winter (and spring and fall) is Dog Mountain up Seymour.
The entrance is at the far end of the parking lot near mystery chairlift.
It's about a 40 minute hike in the summer and maybe 30 minutes in the winter...
Once you get to the Dog mountain lookout you can see all of Vancouver and the surrounding mountains.
Not too shabby.

numero uno - quarry rock

Classic.
This 40 minute hike up Quarry Rock, now often referred to as "Tourist Rock",  gives you a stunning view of Deep Cove, Indian Arm and, on a clear day, Downtown Vancouver off in the distance.
Whether you were aware or not, you've probably already seen a photo of this lookout on someones instagram or tinder account and perhaps you've even been fortunate enough to witness it in person.
Though this Hike is pretty "played" if you will, it is still a beautiful one and despite how many times the view has been captured, it never really gets old.
