China Creek Falls is a hidden gem just ten minutes south of Port Alberni on Franklin River Road. Nestled amidst the lush Vancouver Island rainforest, this trail offers a scenic hike alongside the turquoise waters of China Creek, leading to the powerful China Creek Falls (and one of our favs!).

With ropes to help navigate steep sections and a rocky bank at the base of the falls for a perfect viewing spot, it's a must-do adventure for nature lovers looking to experience the beauty of the region.

Just remember to tread lightly, leave no trace, and enjoy the journey!
