Hunlen Falls, Waterfall in Tweedsmuir Provincial Park, British Columbia, Canada.
Hunlen Falls descends 396 meters from Turner Lake into the Atnarko River through a vertical drop in the Pacific Range mountains of British Columbia.
The waterfall received its name in 1947 from Chilcotin Chief Hana-lin, who established fishing and hunting grounds near the cascade during autumn seasons.
Indigenous communities have maintained connections to the lands surrounding the waterfall, incorporating the natural formation into their traditional practices and knowledge.
Visitors can reach the waterfall via a 20-minute floatplane journey from Nimpo Lake or through a 16-kilometer hiking trail from Highway 20.
The 2004 Atnarko fire, initiated by lightning between Turner and Lonesome Lakes, transformed the landscape around the falls and affected several historical properties.
