This old, volcanic plug is kind of an anomaly because it sticks up a couple of hundred feet above the adjacent low lying shore. The blow hole at sea level only happens at certain tides and wave conditions so may not happen when you’re there. From the top of the plug you can see Massett and Langara Island to the west, you can see across Dixon Entrance to Cape Muzon and Cape Chacon in the Alaska panhandle, and you can see all the way out to the end of Rose Spit and towards Prince Rupert. You can also see southwest towards the Queen Charlotte range of mountains. A bit of a steep climb with stairs but not that difficult. Definitely worth the trek. If you have time, walk over the bridge from the parking lot and check out North Beach. You can walk all the way to Rose Spit or drive your car on the sand to the end of the spit.

This was one of the most spectacular hikes or climbs I have experienced.The work that went into creating it has gone above and beyond.The vegetation awakened your senses.The view at the top was truly breathe taking.We could see Alaska it was such a clear day.On the return I took the trail to check out the Blow Hole.There wasn't much activity at the Blow Hole but what I discovered was some of the most amazing rock ever for bouldering.I literally spent two hours,not a soul around climbing those rocks.You guessed it,I'm a rock climber from Penticton and the world famous Skaha Bluffs.

The board walk is the superhighway of trails! An even grade with slip free footing makes it easy to get to the top and enjoy the view from two different viewpoints facing in opposite directions. You don't need boots, runners or gum boots will suffice. There is a public toilet at the parking lot end of the trail.

and go when there is a moderate high tide. We went twice to Tow Hill. The first time we walked a long while along North Beach toward Rose Point. However it is a 14 km hike one way and we were not prepared (food/water/supplies). We took off to the Blowhole and were very impressed with the stunning boardwalk. If you were using wheels (stroller/wheelchair), then you could go to the Blowhole but not to the impressive lookouts which are at the top of the hill (about 400 feet). There were stairs and stairs to climb, long stretches of straight boardwalk to stroll; all which helps to preserve the ground from hiker traffic damage. The second time we went we saw the blow hole in action and it was magnificent!

If you want to see the blowhole shooting water into the air, find out the hours of that day that it will be doing that, Otherwise you may not even find the blowhole because there is no sign at the end of the boardwalk. The walk to the blowhole was easy but i did not climb Tow Hill.Was mot clear so I figured view wouldn't be that good.Not sure who to call to get answers. Sometimes getting a clear answer to questions like this are a bit iffy in Haida Gwai. Naikoon Park Visitor Center in Tlell was closed and I thought they'd have the answer.Met many others at beginning of hike so I wasn't alone and these people have been there before. Walk thru trees was nice.Gravel road to site no problem for my 2WD rental, but car will get dirty,

The park is well maintained and is easy walk to the top of Tow Hill. My 10 & 5 years old kids had no problem hiking all the way! The trail is beautiful and wooden steps are well built to the top. Its weather can change rapidly at the top, so be prepare. It is also worth to check out "Blow Hole" area. Make sure to have a look at the trail map at the park entrance (by the parking lot).

Excellent trails, well marked & good interpretive signage. Easy walk for family & wheelchairs, natural flora surrounds the raised board walk trail.

We were very impressed by the extensive boardwalk and stair system for this climb to the observation areas. Although some parts of the climb were steep, the footing was very secure and we took our time The first platform with a view of North Beach and Rose Spit was relatively sheltered however South Beach observation platform was exposed. Well worth it. The weather was clear but very windy!!! On our way back we walked out to see the "Blow Hole". Got to the beach, but there was not signage as to where you were suppose to look. When we talked to some others they said that the waves/tide had to be just right and we did not have the right conditions that day. We still enjoyed our day and congratulate BC Parks for a great trail.

Beautiful!!! the hike was amazing - very sturdy wooden plank trail - steep incline and many many many many steps - but worth it -- a platform 3/4 of the way up has a spectacular view too! Not an easy hike for those of us 'not in shape'! But take it slow and enjoy the scenery as you go!

This would have been a "5" if it had NOT been foggy both days we visited. First day we drove up and, clear as a bell EXCEPT a fog patch on the tip of the top of Tow Hill. Two days later, same story. Second time we climbed it anyway. Lovely trail, steep, but VERY well maintained, with non-skid steps and hand rails, etc. A great trial, but, in the end, we could only see down to the beach below (not a "bad" view), but not across to S.E. Alaska as is apparently possible on clearer days. Still a fun rail!
