★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is an amazing hike!! We parked at the park gate and hiked up the "Giant's Head Grind" which is an advanced hike with very steep sections. It's easy to follow the marked trail denoted by the white pegs with Green/Grey/Blue stripes. This hike takes a good two hours to complete. There are also more moderate trails that take you to the summit as well. If you are in shape, I definitely recommend the "Grind". It's worth it!!
The view at the top is well worth the hike up.
The best way down from the top is to follow the winding paved road.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 4 different trails up to the top with varying levels of intensity. I walked up the grind (steeper) trail, which wasn't too strenuous.
The peak provides a commanding view of the Okanagan lake and the mountains/towns surrounding it. There are even little rectangular metal tubes that isolate views of labelled places along the lake.
Definitely a warm walk to the top (I went in late may and still found myself overheating) so make sure you bring water; a hat wouldn't hurt either.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great hike with off-road options of various difficulties. We went at the start of December and the narrow single lane road to the top was closed. Road was a bit frosty with a few icy patches, but considering the time of year that was expected. It's a popular hike, we passed about twenty people or so, half of them with dogs. Amazing views at the top.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Beautiful view. Pretty easy hike taking the road... I would have rather driven it though had the road been open.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We took the ‘grind’ up and it was quite steep, but my boys (8&12) loved it!! Spectacular views at the top. Several trails very well marked according to difficulty.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We did the friendly giant trail, it was ideal for me as I had packed wrong for my weekend adventures. Wore Blundstones instead of hiking shoes.... awesome views!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Beautiful hike, nice variety of difficulty levels for getting to the top from the lower gate. Trails are well marked but narrow, which could be tricky in some areas along the slope if it gets busy, but I only saw one other person the morning of April 13. Great views.
