Our Experience

My boyfriend Cody loves waterfalls. They are always at the top of his must-see list, so I knew we had to take a quick peek at Brandywine Falls on our way from Vancouver to Whistler. It was a rainy day and as soon as we parked and hopped out of the car, we were cold and drenched. I was thankful it wasn’t a long hike to the falls! The trail was an easy walk, only a short 500m stroll to the beautiful lookout point. Even though I did complain a little bit, the view of Brandywine Falls was so worth it. Because of the bad weather, we almost had the place to ourselves. I’m sure over the summer it would be a much busier spot.
