Elevation Gain: 814M Distance: ~5.76 km return This is a good conditioner to keep in shape for the upcoming ski season! We will park our cars at the base of Ha Ling Peak and east end of Rundle. The first part of the trail is in the trees prior to reaching the scree slopes. This is a Class 1
Scramble - Best way to
describe Ha Ling Peak: it is a very steep
hike.
Ha Ling Peak is the impressive pinnacle
that rises above
Canmore to the southwest. The trail winds
up the backside of
the mountain & ends up with stunning views
across the Bow
Valley.
Expect snow & icy patches below and above
tree line. | |||||||
