The Capilano Pacific Trail starts off near Ambleside Park and follows the Capilano River up to the Capilano Watershed and Cleveland Dam. Note that part of the trail is still closed due to a landslide so runners must follow a 3-kilometre detour to get back on the main trail.
You’ll be running through lush, green forests and views of the Capilano River, depending on where you are on the route. If the floodgates are open, you can even find a front row seat to watch the water rushing out of the dam. Keep running north and you’ll be treated to mountain views and the water reservoir.
