With its ancient white cedars and rare plant species, the park is a haven for hikers and nature enthusiasts. The towering cliffs and rock formations provide a dramatic backdrop for exploration, while the absence of campgrounds ensures a truly wild experience.

When to go

The best time to visit Lion's Head Provincial Park is during the warmer months, from late spring to early fall, when the trails are accessible and the flora is in full bloom. Winter visits can be challenging due to snow and ice, but offer a serene, snowy landscape for the well-prepared adventurer.
