The Grouse Grind is probably Vancouver’s most popular hike, especially for the fitness oriented crowd. Most regulars know exactly how long it takes them to get to the top, and, what their PR is! There is even a bi-annual race. It’s a very steep climb that may be described as a more natural version of stair-masterfor the after-work crowd. It was originally used as a training climb for those planning on longer hikes. These days, at the top, you can buy a snack, shop, hike some more, or grab a burger & coke, um, make that a beer. The view from the patio is awesome on a summer evening. You can hike down, or, take the gondola for $5. Imagine a Gondola full of sweaty hikers, or worse, imagine being the guide who operates the Gondola. The Grind is well marked, and has signs marking each quarter of the hike, so you have a rough idea of how much more to do. It’s never a question of where to go (the trail is as worn in as the steps of St. Peters) but of how much further. Cardio! Singles! Sweat!Nature?
