Capilano Mountain, 1,692 metres (5,551 ft), is a summit in the Britannia Range, a subrange of the Coast Mountains of British Columbia, Canada. The mountain is located just east of the village of Furry Creek on the Howe Sound shoreline below. Capilano Mountain is one of the northernmost peaks that can be seen from downtown Vancouver and is therefore often considered to be one of the northernmost North Shore Mountains.[4] It is the headwaters of the Capilano River in the Capilano Watershed, which flows south through to Capilano Lake and the North Shore of the Burrard Inlet. Its north aspect drains into the Howe Sound via Furry and Downing creeks.

Capilano Mountain is typically ascended via the Beth Lake Trail, accessed by Furry Downing Road from the village of Furry Creek.[4]
