Shannon Falls Provincial Park covers 210 acres and is the third tallest waterfall in British Colombia. It’s 36 miles from Vancouver along the Sea to Sky highway.
In 1889 William Shannon settled the property. He made bricks in the area. The falls are named after him.
The falls are 1099 feet in height.
I kept whining I wish we skipped the mine part of the tour so we could spend more time here and at Sea to Sky Gondola but there’s always next time. We ended up really enjoying the mine.
A very nice place. Love your fell down trees picture.
Thanks!
So there’ll be pictures of the mine next? 😉 How was the hiking there? It’s beautiful, but it looks like there was a lot of climbing and jumping over logs in order to get around.
Yes! Britannia Mine next. Just need Vic to proof read it for me since my grammer sucks.
I caught a bad cold. Both of us did. We went to CT to visit a friend and they were sick. Yesterday we thought it was allergies then we kept feeling worse and worse. Last night we were like – oh no, we have the same symptoms!
We only had 1/2 hour here on our tour. I think there’s more hiking, I’m not sure. It was a nice tour but we wished we had a longer amount of time to spend here and Sea to Sky.
Those are very impressive falls. Just looking at the photograph, I can hear the sound of the water crashing down. 🙂
Too bad we only had 1/2 hour here. It was a combo tour that took us to Sea to Sky and the Britannia Mine.
Sounds fun. 🙂
What a gorgeous waterfall! One of my favourites to capture on photo:)
Thanks! Hopefully next time we will have more time to explore. This was a tour and we only got a half hour.
