Hiking
The parking area for Bear Creek Falls is located east, just below the Trans-Canada Highway about 10 km from Rogers Pass.
The waterfall was originally known as Abbott Falls and was later renamed Bear Creek Falls after the creek of the same name. When the creek was renamed Connaught Creek, the name of the waterfall remained the same.

A nice stop while driving along the Trans Canada Highway. The waterfall is worth a visit.

Hiking
An easy path leads to an impressive waterfall. A welcome break from the drive on the Trans Canada Highway.
The path winds around the hill as it descends and within five minutes the noise of Connaught Creek drowns out the noise of the street.
Go down a wooden staircase and reach the falls after about 100 100 meters.
