Description

Cape Split hosts some of the largest ice climbs in the Province. Access is challenging however, so please be respectful to local property owners.

Getting There

Common approach is via the Cape Split park parking lot. Take the main trail into the park and then figure out a way to get to the south coast and down to the shoreline. Walking the beach/shoreline is a pain but the climb is well worth it. You will pass by Walking on Eggshells as you head east toward Amethyst Cove. Siren Song will remain hidden from view until you are almost there so don't give up!

Note: there used to be an easier more direct approach accessed by hiking through private land but this is no longer an option!
