1) Hiking
Explore your own backyard while basking in the beauty of the west coast hiking trails. With an extensive trail network, Squamish has a trail for you. We recommend the Four Lakes Trail, as it is relatively level with an interactive forest loop and a mini bike park in case your kids still have energy!
