Silverton Falls, Banff National Park, AB
(lemmy.world)
Easy 1.2 mi Out and Back 394 ft Elevation Gain Hiked 6/13/25
Generally easy with a small washout section during the ascent part of this quick hike, a double waterfall awaits at the end of the trail. One vantage point of the falls with some lower access, I don't believe you can get to the base of it. Great as an 'after hike' or if you just want a small hike.
The water lazily flows downstream from the unseen falls in this last flat area before the quick ascent to the main falls.
The steep quarter mile or so passes over a small washout section, but not bad.

First time posting on the laptop now that I'm back in the states, anyone know how to add alt text on the main image? I know the body text I just put it under instead, but voyager always has the option for the main. I'll probably use the phone to try to see if I can edit it, otherwise it's: The double falls of Silverton falls as seen from the viewing area, minor rainbow action just below the split.
Edit: If anyone saw this and was also wondering. It is super obvious haha. Between the language and community selection at the bottom.
