Sunwapta Falls Easy two mile out and back trail located along the icefields parkway south of Jasper. The main falls are located at the beginning of the hike and the trail follows along the river downstream, revealing several more waterfalls as you go. River access can be had at the end of the trail as it leaves the canyon. The upper area gets a ton of usage, as does the second falls which are fairly close by and have a good viewing area. Thins out a little beyond that, but its a short hike so stays fairly busy.

The second falls (not including the big chute that comes out from the upper falls). Drops around 15 ft before going into another chute.

The outflow from the uppermost waterfall rushing under the bridge above. Over time it has carved a curving path into the rock on the side with this viewpoint.

Looking downstream from this large waterfall just off the trail. When hiking, you will be afforded other angles of the falls as you continue the trail. The Catacombs Mountains can be seen in the distance.
