Shannon Falls Provincial Park
Shannon Falls Provincial Park, Provincial park near Squamish, Canada
Shannon Falls features a 335-meter waterfall cascading down granite cliffs, making it the third highest waterfall in British Columbia.
William Shannon established the area in 1889, using local clay deposits to manufacture bricks before the land became a provincial park in 1984.
The Squamish First Nation refers to the falls as Kwékwetxwm and tells stories of Say-noth-ka, a sea serpent creating the falls.
The park provides wheelchair-accessible facilities, maintained boardwalks, and two viewing platforms connected by trails suitable for visitors of all mobility levels.
The waterfall flows from Mount Habrich and Mount Sky Pilot, offering rock climbing routes on its adjacent cliff walls.
