Don’t be turned away by the shortness of this waterfall - its roaring and powerful. Got some cool slo mo videos. This hike was very confusing to get to. We originally tried going for sunset, but were unsure and it was getting dark. So we went the next morning. We parked in the SMALL parking lot for surprise corner lookout and got there early enough there was one spot available. Most people just park there for the surprise corner lookout, which is pretty short, so cars are coming and going for parking spots to open up. We parked there, went to the surprise corner lookout, then walked all the way along the highway to Bow Falls, which was very out of the way because we had to backtrack once we crossed the bridge. I would recommend parking near the bridge on bow river and going from there. There is also a path from downtown banff parking lot across the street from patagonia, but you have to pay to park there. The actual hike is pretty fun, but people everywhere and getting in the way. The path goes along bow river until you get to the falls. There are railings at the end that might get in pictures. Overall pretty cool spot but way too touristy.
