Athabasca Falls, located approximately 30 kilometers south of Jasper along the Icefields Parkway, is renowned for its powerful flow rather than its height. The falls drop 23 meters over a layer of hard quartzite into a narrow canyon carved into softer limestone, creating intricate potholes and unique geological formations. A short, accessible trail network—about 0.6 miles (1 km) round trip—allows visitors to explore multiple viewpoints, including a footbridge over the gorge, offering close-up views of the cascading water and Mount Kerkeslin in the backdrop. The paths are mostly flat, with some steps leading down to the river level, making it a family-friendly destination. Interpretive signs along the trail provide insights into the area's natural history. Visitors are advised to stay on designated paths and behind safety barriers, as the rocks can be slippery and dangerous. The site is accessible year-round, but caution is recommended during winter months due to icy conditions. Hiking Athabasca Falls
