Panther Falls (& Bridal Veil Falls) – Icefields Parkway

Comments 25 Comments

Panther Falls is large waterfall cascading into an energetic plunge that is possible to get right up close to. It’s incredible and very wet! You can’t see this waterfall from the road, and it is not listed on most maps/brochures for the Icefields Parkway. While you visit, you’ll also be able to see the long string of Bridal Veil Falls which drops down the mountain on the opposite side of the valley. You can visit Panther Falls and Bridal Veil…

We visited the area when far-off wildfires had obscured…

Wapta Falls – Yoho’s best waterfall?

Comments 31 Comments

Wapta Falls has to be one of the best waterfalls I have ever seen. You can reach it via an easy hike, but the payoff is simply magnificent. We visited when the air was smoky and gross, but it would be even more incredible on a clear day. If you are passing through Yoho National Park, stop and visit Wapta Falls! You can probably tell (from my multiple posts about them) but Marc and I always love hiking to waterfalls….
