Waterfall Hikes in Canada: Our Top 3

1.Jasper: Wildlife and Waterfalls Tour with Lakeshore Hike

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 239 reviews · from $77Our pick

Ride a small air-conditioned minibus through Jasper’s Maligne Valley with an English-speaking naturalist guide. Look for elk, bear, moose, eagles, and other wildlife, pause at Medicine Lake, and take a guided 2 to 3 kilometer walk at Maligne Lake. Maligne Canyon access may be replaced by alternate viewpoints after wildfire damage.

“It was a great way to see Lake Maligne esp for a first timer. Brian was full of information and answered all our questions. He took us to less traveled areas and gave some great tips for exploring Jasper. We are now really excited to go for our next visit. As my husband said, “best way to detox from stress”!”

2.Vancouver Rainforest Hike with Waterfalls, Suspension Bridge, Old Growth Forest

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 94 reviews · from $58Best value

Join guide Adrian for a 3.5-hour small-group outing from Vancouver to Lynn Canyon. Walk through old-growth forest, cross suspension bridges, see Twin Falls, creeks, waterfalls, and natural pools, and travel across Lions Gate Bridge. Expect hills, steep stairs, and a moderate-to-demanding hike.

“Adrian was a lovely guide. Knowledgeable and friendly. The hike itself in Lynn Canyon was beautiful. Nature and waterfalls is what I wanted and it's what I got. Adrian was happy to accommodate walking speeds to suit everyone in the group. The home made oat cookies were a great touch too 😊”
