Pyramid Creek Falls Provincial Park, Provincial park with waterfalls in Thompson-Nicola Regional District, Canada.
Pyramid Creek Falls is a waterfall in the Thompson-Nicola Regional District that drops through several cascades over bedrock. The water descends approximately 300 feet total and forms a series of distinct tiers as it flows toward the North Thompson River.
The waterfall was designated as a provincial park in 1996 to protect the natural landscape in British Columbia. This designation preserved the waterfall system and surrounding environment for future generations.
The name originates from the distinctive formation created when water spreads across the rock face during its second major drop along the North Thompson River.
The best view of the falls comes from Highway 5, where you can observe them directly from the road. Train passengers on Via Rail also get good sightlines as the tracks run near the waterfall site.
The waterfall originates in a hanging valley fed by glacial water and splits into four separate cascades before reaching the river. The multiple drops result from the varying slopes of the rock face that direct water along its downward path.
