Little Qualicum Falls Provincial Park
Little Qualicum Falls
Upper and lower waterfalls cascading through a canyon. A loop trail takes about an hour, and you can swim and camp by the river.
Little Qualicum Falls Provincial Park lies about 10 kilometres west of Courtenay, beside Highway 4. The Little Qualicum River forms upper and lower waterfalls in a granite canyon. A loop trail of about 2 to 3 kilometres runs along both sides of the canyon, passing viewpoints and a suspension bridge. It takes about an hour to walk. In summer, the clear pools on the lower river are popular with locals for swimming and picnicking. The park has a campground and is close to Cameron Lake. Entry is free, parking is convenient, and it pairs well with a visit to Cathedral Grove.
