About

The Mount Begbie Summit trail is a steep strenuous 6 km hike to a small Recreation Site just below the glacier on Mount Begbie. The site has 4 tent pads and a fly out toilet. From this site one can proceed across the glacier to the summit if they are prepared with mountaineering knowledge and equipment. This high elevation campground above treeline sits at the base of the glacier at 2045m elevation.

Mt Begbie is in a Partnership agreement with the Alpine Club of Canada. You can visit them at https://acccolumbiamountains.com

Driving Directions

The Begbie trailhead can be reached by staying on Hwy 23 south and driving past the Mt McPherson Ski Trail parking lot for approximately 1.5 km. Look for the first turnoff to the left where there is a small parking lot and kiosk, this is for the Begbie Bluffs, keep going. The Begbie Trailhead will be located immediately on your right, it is a minimal drive into the parking lot.
