Bridal Veil Falls Viewpoint

Jasper National Park


Near the Icefield Parkway's midpoint, just east of a dramatic bend in the roadway, this lookout offers amazing views southeast down the valley of the North Saskatchewan River, north towards Bridal Veil Falls and southwest towards the crevice-ridden, angular side of Mt Saskatchewan (3342 m).
