Hope Mountain Centre has taken a leadership role in the construction and maintenance of trails in the Hope region.  Trails bring people to wilderness, helping us to achieve one of our core objectives — connecting people with nature.
 
Trails also provide many social benefits, including; physical and mental health, spiritual renewal, cultural and historical awareness, community pride, and economic diversification.
