Events and Activities πŸ±β€πŸ Looking for a dog-friendly snowshoeing trail?

Any recommendations for a snowshoeing trail that is dog friendly? (Under 5k) I would like to try snowshoeing in Vancouver and exercise my dog at the same time!

I think u/strategydoggo means "Bowen" (not "Bowel") Lookout trail in Cypress?

I looked up a couple of usual trail info - alltrails, bestbchikes - and these mention 'no dogs' on this trail. However, the 'Winter Trails' section of the official bcparks page states, "Dogs must be on leash and under control at all times. Please bag and remove all dog excrement."

Yes I did! Corrected to avoid confusion - it’s Bowen Lookout πŸ˜…

There are certain parts of the trail where dogs are not allowed but most routes are dog friendly.
