[1] At 9,216.5 acres (3,729.8 ha),[2] the park boasts a variety of trails for hikers, including easy, intermediate, and challenging.

Lynn Headwaters is also home to the BC Mills House, which is a small building near the entrance of the park.

The temperate rainforest experiences moderate temperatures, plenty of rainfall, and a mild climate that is suitable for growth of large coniferous trees and shade-loving shrubs and ferns.

On average per year, the park receives around 200 cm (79 in) of rain, which contributes to the forest's cool and moist quality.

Additionally, ground hugging flora are present, including some mosses and ferns, salmonberry, Oregon grape and salal.

Also, some birds that are present are red-breasted sapsuckers, winter wrens, owls, crows, chickadees and northern flickers.

After this logging, 5 hectares (12 acres) of cleared land was donated to the district of North Vancouver with the intention to encourage people to purchase real estate.
