Cypress Falls Park | West Vancouver — Attraction in West Vancouver

Our sunny Sunday adventure led us to Cypress Waterfalls in BC, and what a day it was! Hiking with friends was a blast, and this trail was just right – short, easy, and full of natural beauty. The round-trip to the falls spanning about 3 km made for a perfect hour-long trek.

The highlight? The falls, of course! Nature's spectacle, the cascading water was a sight to behold. But what added magic to the hike was the small stream on the way back. We paused there for a lunch break, and the stream's vivid green hue was absolutely breathtaking.

After visiting the lower falls continue hiking up the hill and stay west of the river. Do not cross the wooden bridge. After about 20 minutes there will be a fence with a sign saying it is private property. Continue walking about 10-15 minutes. The upper falls is larger than the lower falls. After seeing the upper falls continue up hill to the road and just before the bridge, there is another trail near blue bollards leading to a twin falls just below the bridge. Then return to road and cross a bridge then return to lower falls via the other side of the river passing through some old...
