Awesome hike. Advanced with ropes and climbing down to the falls. Well worth it. Bringing gloves can be helpful

This was a great hike. Keep your eyes open for a white sign that says \Christie Falls\ Just before the turn. Good parking, short walk in over the streem crossings then down a steep short section to the falls. Or stay up top too and walk to the end . The trail is recommended for people that have climbing gear or are decent free climbers for the short section. Otherwise just amazing. I wish we packed a bigger lunch.
What a beautiful waterfall! This is a hidden gem just outside of Kelowna. It's a very long bumpy dirt road that is manageable in a car, but much better in an SUV or truck (especially in winter). Definitely not recommended for novice hikers. There is a very steep cliff with an assistive rope to guide you down the rocks. Otherwise it is a beautiful hike with a forest that is just starting to re grow after a forest fire. It makes for beautiful scenery!
The hike was fun and interesting. You have to climb down to the waterfall using ropes and vice versa. However, the waterfall itself was underwhelming with little water coming down. Probably because it was the end of the summer. Maybe if we go here earlier it might have been better. Still, it’s a place worth to visit. *Update: I went here again in late spring and the waterfall was fantastic!! Pictures below.
The drive in to the trail head was more challenging/off roady than we expected. I wouldn't attempt it unless you have an SUV or other 4 wheel drive vehicle. The actual hike is pretty easy and short bur requires climbing down a very steep clifr with the assistance of ropes that have been tied by previous visitors. Still some amazing views from the top of the falls if you arent up for the scramble down/up.
