Englishman River Falls Provincial Park
Englishman River Falls
Upper and lower falls in a deep, narrow forest canyon. The short loop trail is ideal for families.
Englishman River Falls Provincial Park lies about 13 kilometres southwest of Parksville. The Englishman River has cut a narrow canyon through moss-covered rainforest, creating upper and lower waterfalls. An approximately 3-kilometre loop trail links two bridges and several viewpoints, from which you can look down on the rushing water in the canyon. In summer, the pools downstream are good for swimming. The park has a campground and picnic areas, and entry is free. It is about 40 kilometres from Nanaimo and is often visited on the same day as Courtenay Market or Parksville Beach.
