About the Park
There are 3 km of maintained trails that wind through this majestic old growth and second growth forested park. Throughout Douglas fir, cedar, hemlock and maple trees are lookouts that provide views of the two waterfalls, an expansive gorge and a quiet canyon. The lower pool provides an enjoyable swimming spot on a summer day when the water levels are low. Spawning salmon can sometimes be seen in the autumn but there is no fishing allowed in the park at any time of the year.

It’s always worth the trip into deep Errington to visit Englishman River Falls. A loop trail accommodates views of the upper and lower falls, accessible year round. This great shot of the lower falls is by stevetylerroe!

Early morning walk to the falls while eating our breakfast. Camped here the night before in the overflow lot. Bonus, the overflow is beside the path to the falls. A busy spot during the summer.
