Teepee Falls, 35 km north of Tumbler Ridge on Hwy 52
Some places earn their silence. Teepee Falls is one of them.
A 15-metre cascade drops off an ancient sandstone lip into a boulder-strewn canyon carved over 90 million years — and the trail to get there is as beautiful as the destination. Wind through spruce and aspen forest with views of the Murray River valley opening up along the way. Watch for mountain goats navigating the black shale cliffs below — somehow, improbably, they’ve made this canyon home.
In winter, the falls freeze solid and become one of the region’s finest ice climbing destinations. Every season here has something to say.
Distance: 5 km return 
Elevation gain: ~80 m 
Difficulty: Easy
Quality Falls 6 km north of Tumbler Ridge on Hwy 52
Close to town and easy to reach, Quality Falls has a way of surprising people who think they know what a short trail can offer.
Follow Quality Creek through the forest to a seven-metre waterfall dropping over a sandstone ledge into a small, swimmable pool below. You can walk right to the water’s edge. Listen for the winter wren and the flash of an American Dipper working the creek — this trail is quietly one of the best birding spots in the Geopark.
Pack a picnic. Stay awhile.
Distance: 2 km return Elevation gain: ~40 m Difficulty: Easy–Moderate (one steep staircase near the falls)
