St. Leon falls Map

Once you get on the trail you are all set. The trail goes through the beautiful B.C. forests and along the St. Leon river. You can hear the power of the river and moments later you can hear and see the powerful canyon with the St. Leon waterfalls. There are numerous spots to view the river and if you are lucky you can see kayakers running the 25ft waterfall. There are some steep parts but the path is very clear and obvious.
