SaveThis region is Unsanctioned, Ride at your own Risk!
Cypress trails, for the most part, are unsanctioned, unmarked and the steepest, most technical trails on the North Shore.
Cypress trails lend themselves to be easily shuttled because of the road access, but there are also great riding loops to be found. You can create these loops using the BLT Trail as the main climbing route accessing all the trails on the mountain.
