Escape the heat and busy city with this moderate hike to Crooked Falls. After the hike take dip in the river below.

The trail to Crooked Falls starts at the Sigurd Creek Trail. The coordinates are: N49.910556, W-123.322817. It is a scenic dive just past the Squamish city center and the Squamish River.

Once at the trail head you'll walk across a bridge over Sigurd Creek and follow the logging road for a couple hundred feet. Follow signs for the Sigurd Creek Trail. About half way up there is an epic view point. It is a great place for some photos and a quick break. From there you will see a point where the trail splits. This is where you will follow the signs for Crooked Falls.

The falls itself is pretty spectacular, especially in Spring when the runoff is at it's highest point. You can get quite close to them, and you'll be able to see the Squamish Valley below.

If you are feeling hot there is a calm place in the creek just below the bridge and is a perfect spot for a quick swim.

Enjoy the hike, and as always please pack everything out.

Hike to Crooked Falls

07/11/22

This heavily forested trail was just what we needed on a hot day. It's a beautiful trail, although it's not an easy one. The trail is very rocky and there is a lot of scrambling over uneven terrain (which makes it fun for those up for a bit of a challenge). The falls are definitely worth it and if you have an extra half hour, make sure you check out the Stoltmann Lookout viewpoint.

Hike to High Falls Creek, BC

This is a great hike with varied terrain. From a flat meandering path to steep, scramble sections with chains and braided ropes. The must-see attraction on this trail is the thunder force of tumbling water heard throughout the day as you hike along a steep walled canyon.You have the option of parking in the pullout just before the second bridge along the Squamish Valley road. The trial head is ...

Hike to the Black Tusk Lookout Point

There is nothing else like it, and it is visible from all over the Sea to Sky area.Depending on your experience and fitness level, you can either: climb right to the top of the Tusk (expert hiking/scrambling ability), hike up to the base of the Tusk (intermediate hiking ability), or go to the Black...

Summit Black Tusk in Garabaldi Provincial Park

This is a very challenging trail! If you are going to carry in a backpack for an overnight hike, you should have a good level of fitness. For a day hike, the trail is nearly 30km long, so still a good level of fitness is required. The trail isn’t technically challenging, but it is up in the alpine and has some serious altitude gains. The very last section of Black Tusk requires a minimal amount...

Explore Garibaldi Park on Snowshoes

Exploring Garibaldi Park by snowshoe is an experience you'll never forget. There is nothing like being in a forest wilderness in the stillness of winter. There are lots of places to snowshoe in the Whistler area, but here are two of the most exciting (yes, snowshoeing can be exciting!) Cheakamus Lake: You can reach Cheakamus Lake in winter two ways: one is by snowshoeing up the access road, and...
