The Miners´ Path — Attraction in Alberta

Great easy path to a refreshing small waterfall with shallow water that you can sit in if you want to brave the chill. Would be awesome on a hot day. Hike was easy (my hiking skills are Couch Potato Level), some steps near the end and can be a bit slippery with the crushed shale and dirt but easy enough for my older French Bulldog. Lots of native plants and trees, even a babbling brook, with many benches along the way to relax. Just off the highway. Took us about 25 minutes to the falls with sniff stops along the way for the dog. Flush toilets at the parking area and the world's largest piggy bank as well.

There are other paths leading...

There are many pictures of a tall stairway. It is not necessary to climb them to get to the waterfall. The stairs are closed now anyways because the bridge to the stairs is closed and needing repairs. I hope you can get out and enjoy this lovely...

Beautiful, quick hike along a path used by miners on their way to work. The path ends at a senic waterfall, but does not go all the way to the mine enterance. The walking path is very easy and can be done in about 45 minutes, and Flumerfeld park has seasonal toilets making it an ideal place to get out and stretch your legs during a long road trip thru the mountains. If you are interested in the history of this unique and beautiful spot I recomend going to the Crowsnest Museum, located just south of the path, and the incredable Bellevue Underground Mine Tours, located off main street Bellevue on the eastern...
