アルバータでの周辺の簡単なハイキングとウォーキング

About an hour up and 45 mins down. Beautiful views!

A bit crowded but still a nice stop

I have done this at the end of July. While it is as everybody describes, easy to the lower falls and not super hard to the upper falls, it was extremely crowded and it felt more like cattle drive up there. I suggest do this very early in the morning or evening there is probably less traffic.

Take the easy path out to the right and back along the interpretive trail! Great!

Have crampons for fall, winter and spring. Beautiful views, enjoy the trail.

Just off the Icefields Parkway, the Sunwapta River rushes through a gorge forming the impressive Sunwapta Falls. The river is a tributary to the mighty Athabasca River. If you are in for a ride, you can take your bike and ride along the Chaba Trail that leads along the Athasbasca River and to two backcountry campsites.

At Sunwapta Falls, the higher Chaba Valley with the Sunwapta River and the large Athabasca Valley with the river of the same name merge to form a spectacular waterfall that falls several meters into the limestone gorge. After two and a half kilometres of turbulent flow, it joins the main stream of the Athabasca River on the valley floor.
