A Spectacular Feature
We visited this as part of a Rocky Mountaineer package on a journey from Jasper to Lake Louise by a coach operated by Brewsters. This was the first stop and we had enough time to visit and experience the full force of the falls, which were very full because of the relatively late snow melt. A must to visit.

Must see!
These falls are absolutely incredible! We stopped at pretty much all of the falls along the Parkway and Highway 16 and Athabasca was probably the most awe-inspiring one. So unique with the “potholes” and other rock formations created by the power of the water over the course of time. And how the water changes color from where the river becomes the falls to where it empties out at the bottom and the river becomes a gorgeous milky blue. And the spray from the water rising up creates a rainbow in certain spots. Truly beautiful and a must see stop!
