Evelyn Falls is a North Shuswap favourite: a short out-and-back hike through cool forest above Anglemont that ends at a secluded, multi-tiered waterfall. It's an easy pairing with an afternoon at nearby Lakeview Park on Shuswap Lake for a picnic and a swim.

Good to know
Stay on the trail and don't climb around the falls — the area is sensitive wetland habitat, with slippery rocks and steep ledges. Don't cut through the private airstrip to reach the trail. In winter the falls can freeze over, and the trail gets icy. Nearby hikes include Herman Lake and Crowfoot Mountain. The trail is maintained by the Shuswap Trail Alliance.
This is a public trail, so there's no owner to claim this page — trail stewards can contact The Shuswap Loop to share current conditions.
