The unoffical highest point in the Cumberland trail network at 995m. Stunning views 360’ of the Beaufort range, Forbidden, the Sunshine coast, Courtenay and Comox. It’s a great place to take in the scenery, hydrate, refuel, and get ready for a long downhill back towards Cumberland. This is a gravity trail meaning foot traffic yield to bikes.
