Sturgeon Falls Trail - Pinawa

Nice trail 2km to the falls some hills but not bad

I hiked to Sturgeon Falls on the afternoon of July 25, 2020. The trail began from the Nutimik Lake campground, along the gravel road leading to the beach. It just under 4 km round trip hike to Sturgeon Falls. It took me 45 minutes for the hike, not including a stop at Sturgeon Falls. The trail had some ups and downs and followed through forest along a gravel path. The foot bridge was about 500 metres into the hike and it was beautiful! There were amazing views of the Whiteshell River from the bridge. It made for really great photos too. After crossing the bridge, follow the trail to the left (the sign points to Sturgeon Falls). This section of trail travels through peaceful forest and ends at the falls (they were more like rapids). There were large rocks for sitting on and enjoying the views. It was fun to watch people attempting to surf and water ski in the rapids and the views were pretty. The trail follows back along the same path. It was an easy walk with some minor ups and downs. There were hardly any mosquitoes during midday when it was sunny and no flies. It was a very pleasant walk, aside from the intense humidity and heat. Would come back again!

A little up and down but pretty easy walk, even in the winter.

This was my first time visiting the trail. I went to see the bridge and I was not disappointed. It's a bit of a hike to get there but the scenery along the way is great and the bridge is amazing. Check it out on an upcoming episode of Travels with Bill.

Very easy trail with beautiful scenery views?

Nice trail, well marked, takes you to the falls, not much of a falls but lovely view, lots of ants on the rocks, so don't sit down. 1.9 km to the falls.

Very nice short trail especially when we visited the place the first week of October. Not crowded, with fall colors on a sunny day was the best recipe for a relaxing walk and awesome views.

Beautiful spot. Not a crazy commitment if you just want to see the bridge either
