The Howe Sound Crest Trail runs high above Howe Sound. It follows the ridgeline between Cypress Mountain and Porteau Cove, with plenty of steep climbs and ups and downs along the way. You’ll move through rocky alpine terrain with big, open views of the ocean, islands, and surrounding peaks almost the entire time.

Bowen Lookout

Highlight • Viewpoint

Bowen Lookout offers sweeping views over Howe Sound and Bowen Island. The hike is short — about 4 kilometers round trip. From the lookout, you get classic coastal scenery: ocean, islands, and layered mountain ridges in the distance. It’s a popular spot to catch sunset.
