Akolkolex Falls
Start location: Revelstoke
Ride Type: Out and Back
Date Ridden: September 2023
Distance: 71 km
Elevation: 1,101 m
Surface: Mix road and gravel
Why do this ride: Scenic falls and lake views.
Difficulty: Straightforward.
Other notes: The shortcut down to falls is decommissioned and relatively steep; for those uncomfortable it is easier to go the longer way around (i.e., as done on return route). The brief flat hiking trail to falls itself is a bit rooty but rideable. The GPX contains some scrambling down to the pictured falls viewpoint, beware with steepness, people have died here. There was a bonus detour to a lake view south of falls but it enters private terrain.
