Cascade Hiking Trail
Discover the power of water
Chase Waterfalls
Visit this trail in spring and early summer to see why it’s named Cascade. Winter melt fuels a waterfall at the summit and creates a stream that runs the length of the trail. You'll get your steps in as you scale the valleys created by the natural force of water.
*Walking time is based on 15 minutes for every kilometre of horizontal distance, plus 10 minutes for every 100 metres of ascent. Allow for additional time to account for the slowest hiker in your group. rich-text, responsive-table
