This beautiful waterfall is accessed via a short 1.5-kilometre trail. The cascade is surrounded by lush temperate rainforest and when you stand at the foot of the falls you'll have feast for the senses. The beauty of the waterfall, the feel of the cool air coming off of the water, the sound of the falls, and the smell of the damp forest make this a truly special place.

A great hike to a lookout on a rocky bluff with expansive views of White Lake, Little White Lake, Tappan Valley, and Mount Ida.

Every four years, the Adams River turns red. This is when a so-called "dominant salmon run" takes place in the river, a salmon migration in which millions of sockeye salmon swim upstream. There they lay up to 4,000 eggs, which are fertilized by the male salmon. The next big salmon migration will take place in 2026, when the Salute to the Sockeye Festival will be held again.

On the 2.5-kilometer-long Story Trail, the first adventure trail in BC, you can use your smartphone to learn about the stories, customs and knowledge of the Secwépemc First Nation. There are a total of 15 stations along the route where you scan a QR code. Once you've done that, you'll hear the voices of local schoolchildren speaking about interesting topics for a few minutes. Another exciting thing: the topic is always first spoken in Secwépemctsin, a local dialect of the Secwépemc First Nation.

Nice hike to the viewpoint over White Lake
