This easy BC hike takes you to a suspension bridge and waterfall hidden in the lush forest
It's less than a kilometre long! 🥾
Someone at Cascade Falls in BC. Right: Hike in BC.
This quick and easy hike just outside of Vancouver brings you to a suspension bridge and a cascading waterfall, surrounded by lush forest.
The bridge will float you above a rushing river and give you a view of the booming falls, which drops down from 30-feet high.
Cascade Falls hike is just outside of Mission, B.C., which is about an hour's drive from Vancouver. It makes for a fun day trip where you can soak in the peace and beauty of nature.
From the parking lot in Cascade Falls Regional Park you just have a short walk uphill to reach the falls. Before long you'll be at the suspension bridge and see the misty waterfall. The whole scene is stunning, from the powerful falls to the moss-covered canyon around it.
You can feel the mist of the falls as you sit and take it all in, enjoying the view.
Since it's an out and back trail you can simply leave the way you came, after you're done taking in the view. VancouverTrails rates the hike as "easy" and says that it's less than a kilometre long. It's estimated to take about 30 minutes to complete the hike, making the long drive from Vancouver that much more worth it.
If you want an simple hike with a big payoff, this is where to go.
