For some visitors to Wells Gray Provincial Park, Moul Falls is the most impressive waterfall of them all. This powerful 35m cascade plunges straight down into a rocky bowl.

During the spring melt, the force of the waterfall is so strong that it can be difficult to approach.

A little more effort is required to reach this Wells Gray waterfall as it is only accessible via a 6km return hike. The first half of the trail is an old road (wide and flat). The second half is narrow and rockier, with the final approach featuring short, steep slopes and some staircases.

The official trail ends right in front of Moul Falls. A thin path continues underneath the (potentially unstable) cliffs to the back of the waterfall.

Exploring this unofficial trail is entirely at your own risk. During the spring melt, the risk and danger factor increases.

I would recommend visiting Moul Falls early on in the day so you can enjoy some solitude.
