Like nearby Mount Fairview, Mount St. Piran is just a hike, but for an easy day out with a fine view it is worth doing. The view of surrounding peaks is outstanding, and whether you decide to traverse it or not, the return ties in well with a visit to Lake Agnes Teahouse for eats and treats. An ascent of Mount Niblock (described elsewhere) could easily be tagged on for a very full day. To traverse it in early summer usually requires an ice axe. Try from mid-June on.
