Mackenzie, Attractions
I recently made a trip from Fort St. John to Prince George and back. At least one of the directions of that drive, we always stop at Bijoux Falls for a quick break.
It is located right on Hwy 97 between Powder King Ski Hill and the turn to Mackenzie. You will know you are getting close when you see little mini waterfalls coming down by the side of the road!
There are clean washrooms, picnic tables, and a bit of room for kids or pets to run around.
The air is always nice and cool with a bit of mist in the air coming off off the beautiful waterfalls. That area is also known for its Stellar Jay population, so keep an eye out for BC's provincial bird!
It is a great, relaxing place to stop just before or after you navigate through the windy roads of the Pine Pass.
