Cascade Takakkaw - Parc National Yoho - Colombie-Britannique - Canada
Coordonnées GPS: 51°29'50.6N 116°29'01.6W
Cette cascade est située dans le Parc National Yoho. D'une hauteur totale de 384 m, elle plonge dans le vide sur 254 m. Elle est parmi les plus hautes du Canada. D'ailleurs, elle est visible de la route.
Elle est facilement accessible. Un sentier très bien balisé nous mène au pied de cette impressionnante cascade en une dizaine de minutes. Il suffit d'enjamber le pont qui traverse la rivière et de suivre le sentier.
Étant donné son accessibilité, c'est un site très fréquenté. C'est pourquoi nous y sommes arrivés très tôt le matin afin d'éviter la horde de visiteurs.
Elle porte bien son nom. Takakkaw signifie C'est merveilleux en cri (langue autochtone).
On se sent bien petit lorsque l'on se retrouve au pied de cette cascade. On ressent toute la puissance du débit d'eau qui s'écoule du haut de cette abrupte falaise.
L'eau provient de la glace en mouvement sur le glacier Daly. Celle-ci fond et l'eau s'écoule pour former cette majestueuse cascade.
Il y a également un autre petit sentier (à droite, avant d'enjamber le pont) qui mène à un belvédère.
On retrouve à cet endroit les deux fameuses chaises rouges de Parcs Canada. Celles-ci ont été installées dans différents lieux historiques et parcs nationaux afin de profiter d'un moment de détente et de contemplation.
Plusieurs randonnées pédestres sont possibles dans la vallée de la Yoho. Le sentier Iceline (Iceline Trail) passe par les chutes Takkakaw et vous amène vers de spectaculaires panoramas.
Nous avons marché une courte distance sur ce sentier (vers la gauche si on fait face à la rivière), mais suffisamment pour apercevoir un majestueux glacier.
A titre informatif, cette cascade apparaît dans le film Le dernier Cheyenne (Last of the Dogmen) réalisé par Tab Murphy en 1995.

Journey Through Takakkaw Falls, Yoho National Park, Canada
Loosely translated to mean 'magnificent' by the original First Nations settlers of British Columbia, Takakkaw Falls more than lives up to its name.
MORE INFO //
Making its presence known with a fog of dense mist as you wind your way deeper into the calm Yoho National Park on BC's Highway 1, there's no missing Takkakaw's barrage of glacial spray as it free-falls 260 metres into the valley below.

Takakkaw Falls, Yoho National Park, British Columbia, Canada
This video shows you a glimps of the Takakkaw Falls in Yoho national park which is located in beautiful British Columbia in Canada.
Its highest point is 384 metres (1,260 ft) from its base, making it the second-highest officially measured waterfall in western Canada, after Della Falls on Vancouver Island. However its true free-fall is only 254 metres (833 ft).
Takakkaw, loosely translated from Cree, means something like it is magnificent. The falls are fed by the Daly Glacier, which is part of the Waputik Icefield. The glacier keeps the volume of the falls up during the warm summer months, and they are a tourist attraction, particularly in late spring after the heavy snow melts, when the falls are at peak condition. The Takakkaw Falls were featured in the 1995 film Last of the Dogmen.
