Wineglass Falls

Map & elevation

A reusable trail line has not yet been verified for this outing. Any location pin shows the published location described above; it does not draw the hike or establish a navigable approach.

Getting there & parking

A dated August 2015 account approaches from Highway 97 at Kersley via French Road. Follow French Road for about 7 km, then follow the main road’s rightward bend onto Hill Lake Forest Service Road; the account specifically distinguishes that road from Hill Lake Road. Continue roughly 10 km to a fork and keep right. About 500 m farther, a short rough branch turns right toward the trail. The writer suggests parking before that branch and walking the last few hundred metres. Road alignments and signs may have changed since 2015, so check the approach against a current road map and recent local information. An April 13, 2026 visitor report still described the final kilometre as muddy and rutted.

Map position: 52.75526, -122.36905 · start point of published trip track (parking unverified). Embedded trip-map feature 'WineglassFalls': first recorded coordinate [-122.36905, 52.75526]. Point extracted from the original public trip map. A track start is evidence of where recording began, not certification of parking, legal access, road suitability or the complete route.

On the trail

Walk the rough final branch if necessary, then take the small path down the bank toward the waterfall. The recessed rock wall and plunge form the main viewing objective. Remain clear of unstable overhangs and slippery edges, and leave the sealed mine entrance undisturbed. Return by the same bank path and access road. The reviewed descriptions do not establish a signed alternate exit or an all-season drive to the lower parking point.

Conditions & seasons

The April 13, 2026 report found the outing largely snow-free but the final approach road muddy and rutted. It is a dated spring observation, not confirmation of present road condition or winter access.

These are dated research notes. Open the trip planner for current available weather and advisory feeds; no alert found does not establish that a trail or road is open.
