Overlander Falls is located in Mount Robson Park and is the largest waterfall on the Fraser River. The falls is a short walk from the Yellowhead Highway. It plunges about nine metre over a smooth rock ledge into a large pool. Downstream from the falls, the river narrows into a gorge.
The Falls were named after the ‘overlanders’, gold prospectors who travelled down the Fraser River Valley to the Cariboo Mountains in search of gold in the 1860s.

Hiking

We were sent to this place by the locals because there is a good chance of seeing bears due to the fish migration. Unfortunately we were not blessed with luck in 2019. Overall, the bears didn't have to be doing very well this year, at least not when it came to the fish. Otherwise, a nice easy trail, where you can take photos at all corners and ends.

For us, the Overlander falls are still one of the most beautiful waterfalls. They are on the program every visit to this region and they never get bored.
