As the name suggests you’ll encounter ten viewpoints as you follow this trail along the ridgeline from South Beach to North Beach. On a clear day you’ll be rewarded with great views of Indian Arm, Burrard Inlet and Vancouver beyond.

Rainforest ferns find hospitable habitat in the thick mossy growth of a maple tree.

The trail is a bit rough in some areas. Return to South Beach via the Powerhouse Road or the Buntzen Lake Trail. Be sure to check out the intake tunnel at North Beach that drops water from neighboring Coquitlam Lake into the Buntzen Reservoir.
