Discover Kakabeka Falls

Kakabeka Falls drops into a gorge west of Thunder Bay. Boardwalks near the top of the falls provide views of the river and surrounding rock, while park trails offer a longer visit. The Kaministiquia River also connects the site to the history of voyageur travel. This makes a focused waterfall stop or part of a wider trip around Thunder Bay and the Lake Superior region.

What to explore

  • Waterfall and gorge views
  • Upper boardwalks
  • River-route history

Plan before you go

Check park access and boardwalk notices before visiting. Use designated viewpoints and stay behind barriers around the gorge.

Check the official operator for current hours, fees, reservations, accessibility and closures. ShopLocal provides trip ideas; attraction tickets and reservations are handled by the operator.
