Metro Vancouver's trail map marks CBC Trail Very Difficult with a black diamond. On the map it leaves a hairpin of Mount Seymour Road beside a parking symbol and runs southwest to meet Enquist and Cabin Trail. The District of North Vancouver's layer draws it in three sections with no grade.
Metro Vancouver's 2026 work permit for the North Shore Mountain Bike Association lists CBC among the trails its volunteers may maintain on approved days.
Worth knowing
- Metro Vancouver opens the reserve at 6 am all year and closes it at 5 pm from November to February, and every vehicle has to be out through the lower gate at the bottom of Lillooet Road by the posted closing time.
- Only Class 1 pedal-assist e-bikes may ride in the Lower Seymour Conservation Reserve, and Metro Vancouver asks their riders to stay under 30 km/h and yield to everyone else.
- Metro Vancouver tells its own trail crews to expect no phone signal in most of the reserve's trail areas, so leave a trip plan with a friend and carry North Shore Rescue's 10 essentials.
- Metro Vancouver closes Mount Seymour Road from 10 pm to 7 am in the winter months, so plan a winter ride with time to get back down the road.
