SUMMARY: The trail up Valentine Mountain does, at times, follow along the mountain's cliffs, so be smart hikers. Keep your eye on the young ones. It should take about 15-20 minutes including some breaks to reach the top. At the summit there are some private picnic tables so a group can sit back and enjoy some food and liquid while taking in the many different views of the surrounding islands like Texada, Savary and Cortes Island.
Also there are little off -shoot trails exploring the summit leading to more views. On the east side of Valentine Mountain there are views of Mowat Bay , Cranberry and Powell Lake. The northwestern sight lines off of the mountain are of Powell Lake Marina, Scout Mountain and One Mile Bay.create
