Takakkaw Falls in Yoho National Park is a must-see for anyone visiting the Canadian Rockies. As the second-highest waterfall in Canada, it's a stunning sight that's easily accessible via a short and easy hike. The best time to visit is in mid-June, when the glacial melt is at its peak, creating a powerful cascade of water. Bring a rain jacket to get up close and personal with the mist! The trail to the waterfall is paved to the end. So you can push a stroller or even a wheelchair along the way.
