Kap-Kig-Iwan is a name derived from the Ojibwe phrase for “high falls” or “water running over the edge,”
Kap-Kig-Iwan Provincial park is the home of several waterfalls. The Hell’s Gate Trail includes waterfalls ranging from wide expanses of river with short drops to the roaring main falls. Whitewater rapids connected these special spots and rock steps guide visitors down to the best spots for photos.
This waterfall adventure was my first major waterfall of the summer season and what a great start this was. I often will do quick research of waterfalls in a geographic area before I head out but that research is limited, so getting here I had no idea what I was heading into.
At the parking lot, there are some rapids and a small waterfall, pretty and enjoyable, but nothing mind blowing. However, as you walk the trails you can see another cascade up ahead, so I headed in that direction.
I was quickly in awe of my surroundings and so happy to be here at the large and roaring main waterfall.
Kap-Kig-Iwan Falls is a must-see if you're in the area and the trails, paths, steps and rand rails make it a very easy explore.
