Tulameen Falls Recreation Site

Great hike, slightly difficult, fun and great destination. Bring shoes that can get wet.

Unreal spot. Absolute journey to get to, we're not real avid backwoods outdoors types though. Short enough hike once you're there (about 30mins in and back). We went in mid July.From Tulameen you will definitely not be able to do this in a car. Even a crossover may be tough, very bumpy and uneven and lots of scree from past slides. I had a stock Ram truck. Follow the driving instructions on the picture I submitted (or find them on a quick google search).The trailhead is exactly where the point on Google Maps is. The 'parking lot' is on the left and there is a large crater to your right. Some mild paint is on a tree marking the start and its straight downhill on a path. To cross the water, wear shorts and bring a towel. The spot where you cross is beautiful for a picnic itself and it's deserted, so take advantage.Once you cross the river, hike along the trail, which naturally leads to a river shores edge, take the edge of the river along the rocks and it will soon join back to a short trail that brings you straight to the falls. You can see the falls without having to cross the river again or you can cross another, deeper part, like I did to get right up close.Thoroughly worth the drive there.

Hidden gem! I made the trek the other day on my dirt bike from Tulameen. I encountered 3 obstacles; a partially fallen bridge, and two road washouts, all of which I was able to overcome. At one section I was able to navigate with the use of my drone to find a trail as the road was completely washed out from last Fall. Once reaching the trailhead (dead-on the map as previous poster mentioned & look for the spray painted blue rock on the side of the road). We ventured down 5-minutes to the river. As expected, the river was still too fast & flowly therefore we weren't able to cross safely and couldn't see where the trail was. However, I was able to view the falls via my drone which looked amazing. I will be back.

Gorgeous with little foot traffic. Take note you will need to hike trail for 15-20min. I would say if you are not able bodied this is a very hard hike to complete(very steep and tight trails). The trail is clear to the first stream crossing(lots of change in elevation in the first half). The second part of the trail ends at a shore access of rocks. Follow the side of the stream till you find the second part of the trail. This is where most people will loose trail and turn back(we almost did). Once you follow the second portion you will have to cross the stream again. I suggest the larger downed tree but you can rock hop.

Due to Princetons recent floods I wasn't able to hike to the falls themselves, but I got to enjoy some beautiful spots while exploring today.
