Englishman River Falls trails

Please note we are meeting in the Englishman River Falls parking. Min attendance will be 3 for this hike to take place. Guests are welcome :).

This hike will take us along the Englishman River falls trails. We will spend time on Walrus, Further, Brians worm, Perverts traverse, Machete, and Helivator trails… (I don’t make up the names🙃).

This will be a moderately challenging trail with consistently up and down areas as well as a relatvely short but steep section up. You should be a strong “B” hiker to join this hike. We do move at a fairly quick pace. The uphill may be a challenge for those not used to elevation. If you have done the Notch or lantzville lookout you will be fine on this :). As this is an evening hike we will only stop for view points :). Most of this hike is under trees so we will likely stay dry even if raining. If you are unfamiliar with this trail please reach out to me and I will fill you in a bit more. We should take 2ish hours. There are washrooms at start of hike.

I encourage people to always have a tracking/trail app with them. There are many that are free and work well. If you find the hike difficult this will help you get back to your vehicle…..
