The best camping near Twin Falls Tea House National Historic Site guide

Overview

About

When train whistles first blew through the Rocky Mountains in the early 1900s, the Canadian Pacific Railway built grand hotels, rustic lodges and backcountry chalets amid some of Canada’s most spectacular natural landscapes. Today, Twin Falls Tea House is a seasonal overnight retreat for registered guests. Stop at the historic log building while day-hiking to enjoy its rustic architecture and breathtaking views of the dual cascades of Twin Falls.

When to go

The best time to visit Twin Falls Tea House National Historic Site is during the summer months, from June to September, when the trails are clear and the weather is favourable for hiking. The site is closed for the season during the winter, making access challenging due to snow and ice.

Be aware that the Tea House is accessible only by foot, with an 8.5 km hike from the Takakkaw Falls parking lot.
For overnight stays, contact the Alpine Club of Canada to secure reservations in advance.
