This location holds cultural significance as well, being part of a park established in 1939, reflecting both the natural beauty and heritage values that British Columbia is celebrated for.

Absolutely loved my visit to Moul Falls this weekend! The hike is about 3 km each way through a peaceful forest trail—well-maintained and easy to follow. It’s a great mix of scenic and serene. The best part? You can actually walk behind the waterfall, which was an unforgettable experience. The mist and sound of the water crashing down made it feel magical. 📍 Heads up: The final descent to the falls is quite steep and can be slippery, especially after rain. Wear good shoes and take your time—it’s totally worth it once you’re down there. If you’re anywhere near Wells Gray Provincial Park, definitely add this to your list. One of the most rewarding short hikes I’ve done in BC!

This waterfall is great, we were here on May 22, 2025, and it's really cool that you can see the rain in the water, you can get behind the waterfall, we didn't do this, we thought the path was too bad, take Nordic walking sticks with you, you get down with a partly iron staircase, the way there is easy to do, also for less experienced hikers
