Kwasitchewan Falls

Kwasitchewan is a backcountry waterfall destination reached from the Pisew Falls area. Manitoba Parks identifies it as the province’s highest waterfall, but the main planning issue is the demanding route rather than the height.

Planning your visit

The park describes the trail as difficult and intended for prepared, experienced hikers. Published distance figures vary, so obtain the current park map and plan from that route. Carry navigation, emergency supplies and enough food and water for delays; do not treat it as an extension of the short Pisew boardwalk.

Our take

A destination for a properly prepared backcountry trip. Visitors seeking an easy overlook should choose Pisew instead.
