Waterfalls galore, safe trails, multiple trees, bushes, water views, rock formations and picturesque sights.

The campground was great, no services, but lovely sites and reasonable clean outhouses. Campground hosts were helpful. The falls are quite amazing, although probably even better earlier in the summer when more water flowing. Our teenagers loved jumping off the small rock cliffs into the frigid waters below the lower falls. Really nice park!

The falls are very near the parking lot so you can see them and not do the trails if you like. The full loop took about half an hour. There’s some fairly steep elevations here and stairs here, so not for everyone. A nice spot, but Little Qualicum Falls were better in our opinion.

Wonderful falls. Well worth walking to see both falls. Takes about 30 mins. Some climbing on a well made path. Nice lunch spot. Well maintained

The upper Falls is very close to the parking lot, just meander out onto the bridge for a great look. We recommend going a little bit further to the right, so you can get a bigger look at more of the individual falls that make up the big one. The lower Falls view is underwhelming and easily skipable unless you have time, then it is still a pleasant walk.

If walking through the woods to look at plummeting water is your thing…put this on your to-see list.
Massive parking lot, easy and accessible walk to the Falls which will speak for themselves. There is a trail the other side of the walking bridge but not accessible-friendly due to rocks and/or tree roots.
Beautiful spot.

Amazing falls with a bridge view for full impact. The walk ways were well maintained with lots of signage to stay on paths in order to help the foliage maintain their growth. This is a very popular place, I would suggest visiting in the morning.

This is a fairly easy hike to do. There are many spots to see the falls and the falls are impressive with the amount of water and the beauty of nature.

The Englishman River Falls Provincial park has a rugged beauty that typifies why Vancouver Island in general and this area in particular is so beautiful. Enjoy a hike around the most excellent trails and be sure to check out the falls as they are spectacular.

These falls are very impressive. We were there in the winter and perhaps the water flows are higher then. Pretty much a must do if you are in the area.

Yes, was able to use my cell without problems
Just wondering which sites would be best to reserve if we want to be close to the little bike park that’s in the campground

Sorry I cannot help you, when we visited the Falls recently, the last couple of kms to the Falls was closed for road maintenance and we like others walked in.
It did not detract from the scenery but at that point in time no-one was camping near the picnic area.
Might add it was the end of winter and not the summer holiday season.

Camping sites 53 to 64 back onto the entrance road... any reason to be concerned for traffic noise?

During the day maybe a bit especially on the weekend. All the sites are close so a noisy camper can cause issues for all.

When camping at the park - I see there is no sani-station - is water available for RV's? A place to easily add water to your RV once there?

If I remember correctly, there are cold water taps in the campground. It may be a bit awkward filling your rev, but it can be done
