Seek the Peak 2026

Seek the Peak 2026 brings a classic North Shore uphill challenge to Grouse Mountain’s Centennial year. The 16K route starts at Ambleside Park in West Vancouver and climbs through North Vancouver to The Peak of Vancouver.

Runners can take it on solo or as a team of 2–4, which makes the event feel as much like a shared mountain day as a race. It’s a steep effort with a strong summit finish and a clear local identity. If you want a broader view of the region’s running scene, see Races in BC or Trail races.

This is a point-to-point mountain course from Ambleside Park to The Peak of Vancouver. The route runs through North Vancouver and finishes with the Grouse Grind climb to the summit.

The event page lists an 8:00 a.m. welcome and warm-up at Ambleside Park, with an 8:15 a.m. race start. The finish celebration is at the mountaintop.
