Route Description for Lynn Valley Link Trail

The Lynn Valley Link Trail is a 14.2 km loop in North Vancouver that connects at five different trailheads: Lynn Canyon Park, Inter River Park, Kirkstone Park, Princess Park, and the Fromme Mountain parking lot. This trail utilizes portions of existing routes, such as the Baden Powell and Dempsey trails, to create a unique hike that combines urban and natural elements.

Due to its unique composition, this trail has many access points from which you can start your hike. Beginning at the Inter-River Park and moving clockwise, the trail takes you over Lynn Creek on a path through the city that heads northwest. Reaching Braemar Road, the trail climbs uphill through the forest, utilizing the Dempsey and Baden Powell trails before turning south to skirt along the banks of Lynn Creek.

The remainder of the trail runs along the creek toward Lynn Canyon Park. Here, it makes use of the Lynn Valley Suspension Bridge and the crossing at Twin Falls before continuing back down to its conclusion at Inter-River Park.

The journey around the Lynn Valley Link Trail is a great way to get out and spend an afternoon exploring the urban and natural landscapes that Vancouver has to offer. Highlights along the trail, such as the Lynn Valley Suspension Bridge, Twin Falls, and the Lynn Canyon Ecology Centre, make this easy day hike all the more exciting.
