Description
Distance: 3.5km to peak
Elevation Gain: 910m (3000ft)
Hiking time: 2-3 hrs to peak
Mount Hosmer Hiking Trail is split into two sections. The first section of the hiking trail follows a narrow path uphill for about 3 kilometres (1.9 mi.). The trail is mostly dirt and earth, with exposed roots and rocks. The first 3 kilometres ends at the base of Ghostrider Peak on Mount Hosmer and is considered moderately difficult as it includes some switchbacks and steep hills. The second section of the trail leads to the summit of Hosmer Mountain/Ghostrider Peak. It starts off relatively easy and then near the peak it becomes steep. This section of the trail is approximately 2 kilometres. Towards the upper section, the trail navigates along a ridge leading to the towards the summit. The trail is unmarked and is unmaintained.

Super steep hike where hiking poles are your best friend. You might not be able to make it to the very top as it is very sketchy but the views are well worth it.
