It´s only 1,5 km to the peak 1 but you can take a shortcut if you climb the 600 meters on the vertical cliff. We took the landscaped trail and its also steep, very steep. Mostly it goes uphill by stairs and ladders or you have to pull yourself up on chains wich are anchored on the rocks. But be aware of joggers who are using the tail as a training session …
A small area that, for whatever reason, remained from deforestation and “thinning” , is now the Mac Mullan Provincial Park. The oldest tree has 800 years on its bark and was already 300 when Columbus came to America. 2013 a violent storm had knocked down a number of mighty trees, which now looks like a giant and a pituresque Gulliver´s Mikado game. In this spectacular jungle an older Canadian was shaking his head and he said “it’s a shame”. “It’s nature” I replyed to him, but in his thoughts the trunks were already transported to the sawmill.
