Route 3: The North Shore Spirit Trail

The North Shore Spirit Trail is unique as it is rooted in Indigenous culture and art. Once complete, it will span 35 kilometers across the North Shore. Throughout the path, you will find many Indigenous murals, art pieces, and cultural figures and symbols. The path is fully paved and accessible for cyclists and pedestrians, and it has a beautiful view of the water and downtown Vancouver. The trail is almost completely flat, which makes it ideal if you are looking for a more relaxed stroll.  

Difficulty Rating (1-5): 1

Dog-Friendly: Yes!

Time to Complete: Since this trail is so long, the time to complete varies depending on the portion of the trail that you decide to use. My walk took me around 45-55 minutes.
