    #1 - Brandywine Falls
    Length: 0.7 miEst. 23m
    This is a very short trail to the lookout, and it can get pretty busy and crowded. Visitors recommend that you visit the falls during early mornings or on a rainy day to avoid the tourists and to secure a parking spot. The waterfall itself is magnificent, and you will want a more secluded experience to enjoy. The pathway is hard-packed gravel that is stable and firm.

    #2 - Brandywine Trail
    Length: 3.6 miEst. 1h 34m
    Brandywine Falls is easy to access from the nearby Highway 99. It is a short walk from the car park and it offers absolutely stunning views. The trails are well-maintained and graveled, so the hiking is easy for most hikers and will be a good experience for new hikers, too. For the average tourist this is a great stop on the way to Whistler or on the way out to see some other magnificent waterfalls, and locals highly recommend taking the hour or so it takes to make their way down to the base...
  • Brandywine Falls and Suspension Bridge Trail

    #3 - Brandywine Falls and Suspension Bridge Trail
    Length: 7.0 miEst. 3h 2m
    Starting out with beautiful views of Brandywine Falls, the trail goes through forest to an area where the loop portion begins. There's beautiful scenery along converging rivers, suspension bridges as well as a bungee jumping bridge partway up the trail! It's an easier trail at the start with some moderate difficulty levels in the middle. Try the loop in a counter-clockwise fashion so you are finishing the hike through the forest and along the river rather than on the paved road sections.
  • Brandywine Falls Loop via Suspension Bridge
    Moderate4.2(136)
    #4 - Brandywine Falls Loop via Suspension Bridge
    Length: 5.9 miEst. 2h 24m
    This is a great loop for those looking for a moderate length of hiking with amazing nature, but you can also complete this in a shorter adventure by going counterclockwise and meandering through the Bungee Bridge and then coming double back via the sea-to-sky trail. This route is also relatively flat and short but there are lots of different ecosystems, and the route is usually busy at the falls end of the trail but otherwise it will be lightly trafficked.
  • Brandywine Trail Loop to Cal-Cheak Suspension Bridge

    #5 - Brandywine Trail Loop to Cal-Cheak Suspension Bridge
    Length: 5.7 miEst. 2h 21m
    There are many trails in the Brandywine Falls Provincial Park worth checking out. The falls themselves are only a short hike south from the parking lot, but this loop trail visits them last. It heads north on the Lava Lake Trail and up to the Cal Cheak Suspension Bridge, about a 500-metre detour each way. It then follows the river south and onto the Sea to Sky trail for a bit before visiting the Brandywine Falls. Do not climb the Brandywine Falls, the rocks are very slippery and it's very...

    Length: 1.8 mi
    Brandywine Falls is conveniently located near Highway 99 and is easily accessible. It's just a short walk from the car park, and you can enjoy breathtaking views of the falls. The trails are well-maintained and covered with gravel, making it easy for most hikers to navigate. Even new hikers will find it to be a pleasant experience. If you're planning a visit, it's best to go early in the morning or on a rainy day to avoid the crowds and secure a parking spot. The waterfall itself is truly...
