Trail Access
The trailhead and parking lot are located at the top of Mt. Hope Forest Service Road, accessed off of the Crowsnest Highway 3. The dirt and gravel road is steep in some sections with occasional ditches requiring a vehicle with clearance to make it up.
Here is the google map for the parking lot: https://maps.app.goo.gl/4DBTWKdNZhRaTomu6
The parking lot is the same for both the Hope Mountain and Wells Peak trails.
Dogs on-leash are permitted on the trail, but please be responsible to ensure they are picked up after and do not wander off the trail to disturb wildlife or the surrounding habitat.
The trail is located just outside the town of Hope.
There is a pit toilet ("loo with a view") at the top of the trail.
When hiking every trail please practice Leave No Trace principles and pack out anything you pack in.
Trail Work
Hope Mountain Centre's trail team continues to maintain the trail each year thanks to funding support from the District of Hope and others. See a full list of our partners here.
