A very nice 3 hour hike on Gambier Island. Start at the Government wharf near Camp Fircom. A water taxi from Horseshoe bay will get you there for about 35$.
A 360 view of Howe Sound from the top. Wow!

Walk along dirt roads for the first km but then you enter into dark green rain forest.

Somewhere near the top is a geocache for extra fun.
Ther is no water on route so bring lots.
At the top there is the remain of an old fire watch tower.
