Canada's Best Hikes Were Just Ranked & There Are So Many Adventures To Choose From

Grab your hiking boots, walkers! Canada's best hikes have just been revealed and there are so many popular walking routes all over the country. In fact, you'll never have to wonder where to hike in Canada again!

While we've all heard of some of the most famous hikes in Canada like the Bruce Trail, this list includes some of the lesser known walking trails in places like B.C., Ontario and more.

And how do you narrow down an entire nation's worth of hikes into a concise top ten trails? Well the study, conducted by SportsShoes.com, used both popular Google searches and Instagram hashtags related to each location to give each walk an overall score.

That total score then was used to rank each hiking trail against others from across the country, giving us the best, most popular hiking trails in the country.

At the top of the list is Southern Ontario's Bruce Trail, which is nearly 900 kilometers long and stretches from the Niagara River to the tip of Tobermory on the Bruce Peninsula. It's perfect if you have a spare week or two to go out on an adventure.

Next up is Newfoundland and Labrador's East Coast Trail, a 336 kilometre long trail along the Atlantic Ocean, which is bound to provide some amazing views.

After that is the West Coast Trail, which follows the Pacific Ocean for 75 kilometres on Vancouver Island, and after that the Black Tusk, a hike up the remnants of an ancient volcano, which is just a short drive from Vancouver.

The Stawamus Chief, not too far from Black Tusk, comes in at number five, which is a popular, steep hike in Squamish, B.C. It gives a gorgeous panorama view of the area though, so it's worth sweating for!

Rounding out the second half of the list in the sixth spot is Mount Albert Trail, Alberta.

The Juan De Fuca trail, which follows along a portion of the south western coast of Vancouver Island, comes in the seventh position.

And, finishing up the list are the Rim Trail in the B.C. Interior, and the Plain of Six Glaciers and Turtle Mountain, both of which are in Alberta.

So, now you have no excuse not to get out this spring or summer. There are tons of beautiful hiking trails across the country for you to explore, so put on those hiking shoes, grab a buddy and get out there.

Happy hiking, Canada!
