The calming rush of the creek, the huge cedar trees, the lookout overlooking Valemount, the lichen, mushrooms and other plant life, plus a suspension bridge!
Look into this powerful waterfall from right above it. Watch leaping salmon in August.
Peaceful and lush with not much elevation.
Observe tiny marsh critters – very close to info centre. Kid-friendly.
Sandy trail surrounded by sensitive lichen; good views of Mica Mountain
A gentle hike with two different routes to the falls. Remember the Overlanders who came by horse and boat.
Wide paved trail around the village. Wheelchair/stroller friendly.
Enchanting bluffs and waterfalls. Choice of several end points: lakes, big rock or peak.
A hotbed of ecological activity – a wildlife and bird watcher’s delight
