      Takakkaw瀑布处在Yoho国家公园的中心地带,是公园的主要景点。穿过一段树林就可以看到瀑布的全貌。汛期时水流湍急,远远的水气就扑面而来。

      沿着狭窄曲折的Yoho Valley Road前往Takakkaw Falls这个大角度的盘旋之字路, 基本上是直上直下从停车场远远向山上望去,只见一条白链自山涧飞泻直下,奔腾的水流发出阵阵轰鸣。在印第安克里语中,Takakkaw的英文意思是“Magnificent”。顺着观景小路来到瀑布前,水雾向四周弥漫,抬头望去, 真的有“疑是银河落九天”的感觉。由瀑布出来上一号公路向东北拐,进入93号公路(Icefields Parkway)冰原大道。实际就又回到了班夫国家公园。

      These are not as well known as some other falls in North America, but they are well worth the somewhat difficult drive up to the car park. In addition you can walk quite close to them in complete safety, or if you are more adventurous, you can ascend the "Iceline" on the far side of the valley, and get a completely different perspective on them.

      The drive along Yoho Valley Road can be quite intense as it is narrow with a tight uphill switchback, which inexperience drivers might find it quite challenging, especially during peak seasons when lots of vehicles are sharing the same route from different direction.However, it’s totally worth the challenge as Takkakaw Falls is truly impressive and remarkable, that plunge from a height of 254m freefall, making it Canada’s second highest waterfall. The loud roaring sound of the falls can be heard when in the parking lot and the river that runs alongside with the trail is crystal blue. There are a lot of benches along the trail, which visitors can sit back, relax and enjoy the view of the majestic waterfall and listen to it calling back at you.Continue the trail will lead you to an up-close experience with the falls.

      We had a rainy day in Banff so drove to YoHo national park and checked out the falls (clear skies). Able to climb up along the side of the falls for great pictures to show the size. Not crowded like some sigh-seeing spots.

      The drive up a switchback road to get to the falls added a bit of adventure. If you are in a long motorhome it would prove challenging and require some reversing. You can see the falls from the approach road but make the effort to park and walk right up to the falls. It's quite an easy walk on a gravel path once you cross the wooden bridge (where I lost my sunglasses) From a distance you see the falls dropping down the side of the mountain and disappearing behind the trees. Up closer you see the bottom of the falls creating the river and see the little islands, flora and general terrain in much more detail. There's a lot of spray given off so wear a waterproof jacket and either have a waterproof cover for your camera or put it away so it stays dry. Definitely a spectacular waterfall worth the drive and walk. There are picnic tables, bins and toilet facilities but no food options.

      Was a drive to get there,not really right off the main road, but so worth it! Beautiful and can take a walk up close to it! Thundering and beautiful!

      Leaving the main highway and taking a side road that is rather thin in paces you travel about 14kms until you hit the very large car park. The waterfall is visible from the car park but do make the effort to walk along the paved pathways and stand at the foot of the falls. There is a picturesque bridge to cross the turquoise coloured river and the scenery around on all sides is stunning. We were fortunate in that it had snowed a couple of days earlier and so the peaks were still covered and when the sun broke through the clouds it was absolutely beautiful.We had a picnic at the side of the river and just watched the world go by but there are lots of tracks that you could take through Yoho NP and quite a few other waterfalls within a four or five mile trek.

      I found out about this waterfall from the ranger at the visitor center in Field. She told us to backtrack about 20km and see the falls. OK, we had been seeing waterfalls all week and I almost didn't turn around, but I had a hunch. We were glad we did. The falls are incredible. I heard they are the second highest falls in Canada. We couldn't have timed our visit better; we got there just before sunset and the falls were brilliantly lit. Rainbows appeared and then faded in the mist. The hike up to the falls is maybe half a mile or so. An easy walk. At the end are some rocks you can climb on to get closer to the falls if you dare. We saw the falls in mid september and supposedly that is the driest time of the year. I would like to see the falls in the wettest time of the year. There aren't really any facilities in the area, just parking along the road. There was some sort of backpacker hostel up the road, but I didn't check it out.moral... ALWAYS ask the ranger about the area.

      I enjoyed seeing this high falls with parts shooting water straight out. You can see it from near the parking lot or take a paved trail to the bottom of it. The drive back to it includes a pull off to see 2 rivers joining together and a switchback road where the curve is so sharp a tour bus must back down.
