HA LING PEAK // A Canadian Rockies Hike You Can't Miss

If you're looking for a challenging hike that you can't miss, then you should check out Ha Ling Peak! This hike is known for its photogenic views of the Canadian Rockies, and it's not easy - but it's definitely worth it!
Until a few days ago, Ha Ling was the only hike I had ever started and not finished. My first attempt was spur of the moment, when I was sick and for a sunset we didn't allow enough time for. A disaster all around really... Understandably I was due for a redemption so when the opportunity struck I took it.
On an early Thursday morning I decided to head up there solo. Doing it alone wasn't necessarily my intention but I wanted to achieve my own goals and not wait for others in order to do so. Completing this hike by myself came with an extra layer of accomplishment. I did it, I got to the top and I didn't need anyone else to do so. It was a nice reminder of what we are all capable when we put our mind to it. We can enjoy our own company and laugh at ourselves too. This summer I am focusing more on doing what I want and enjoying my own company in the process!

    Good job Caitlin! I have been up there many times and when I take people to the mountains for their first hike this is where I bring them. It is addicting and I hope you continue on your hiking journey. Best of luck to you.

    It took me 2.5 hours but I’ve seen AllTrails reviews saying they got up in 1.5 so I would plan for anywhere in between!
