This paved path takes you around the town of Waterton, along the lakeshore, and right by the famous Cameron Falls. The path never strays too far from town so you can grab a drink or snack if you feel the urge. The areas natural surroundings mean wildlife are often spotted on the trail, so keep your eyes open and camera handy.

This beautiful waterfall is easily reached from the Waterton townsite and is a must see if you're in the area. While the best views are from the base of the falls there is a short side trail you can take to the top of the falls if you'd like to get a different perspective.

The Lineham Creek Trail in Waterton Lakes National Park follows a steady forested route alongside the creek, leading toward the base of Lineham Falls. The trail gains elevation gradually, offering mountain views and open meadows along the way. It’s a moderate hike with a clear path and plenty of shade, ending at a lookout that gives a striking view of the tall twin falls cascading down the cliff ahead. Make sure to keep an eye out for bears as they're known to frequent the area!

The Great Divide Trail travels along a ridge with fantastic views of small waterfalls and the Carthew Lakes. The alpine lakes are nestled between Mount Carthew, Mount Alderson and Buchanan Ridge. You can follow some side trail to get down to the shimmering water. This scenic area is home to fluffy marmots as well.
