Stunning Waterfall. Easy Hike - 3km roundtrip with minimal elevation gain. Fun Day Trip. Easily Accessible. Camping nearby.

From the turnoff of Highway 99, there is a parking lot specifically for Nairn Falls Provincial Park. There are maps all over the place, and they will direct you to the trailhead for a short hike to the waterfall. There is a blockaded section at the waterfall for viewing due to the danger that the waterfall poses with such a strong flow of water.

This is a beautiful place to spend an afternoon, or just as a detour along your drive from Whistler to Pemberton. You can also camp at the excellent campgrounds, just be sure to make a reservation before making your plans as the sites can fill up quickly due to the close proximity to Whistler.

Hike to Nairn Falls

The falls are cool, and the short hike is good if you need to stretch your legs. If you're short on time, it's definitely skippable.

Hike to Nairn Falls

I love going to Nairn Falls for a quick hike, and the camping is great here too! I sometimes park at One Mile Lake and walk in from there to make it a bit longer.

Hike to Nairn Falls

The coolest part about this waterfall is my mom has the same maiden name, Nairn. Anyways, most of the hike is relatively easy until you get to the last couple hundred feet of it as it gets pretty rocky so just watch your step and you should be fine. The falls are beautiful and thunderous well worth a stop if you are driving along Hwy 99.

Mt. Currie Trail

Mt Currie is the giant mountain that sits above the village of Pemberton BC. It soars 7800 vertical feet from the valley floor to the summit in sheer cliffs. (The mountain itself is 8517ft high.) Before 2014, the only way to reach the summit was to bushwack the entire 7800ft climb (we did this two years ago, it's a challenging way to get up there, to put it mildly!). You could also hire a heli...

Mountain Bike "Out There" on Wedge Mountain

The most direct route is to start at the Wedgemount trail head parking lot and ride up the Logging road to approximately the 4.5 KM mark. The trail starts out smooth and flowy through some old forest. Lots of great corners and no particularly technical sections. The trail then takes a complete change of pace and begins to introduce several steep rock rolls. The second half of the trail plays t...

Explore Lillooet Lake

Lillooet Lake sits at the bottom of the Duffey Lake Road, just past the village of Mt Currie. In 2010, Mt Meager experienced a landslide totalling 48 million cubic metres, the largest in modern Canadian history. Sitting directly upriver of Lillooet Lake, the Meager slide turned this beautiful turquoise lake into a mirky shade of brown for many years. It's now returning to its' former radiant se...
