Provincial park with waterfall, fish ladder, salmon viewing and walking trails.
Stamp River Park is northwest of Port Alberni and accessed by turning from Highway 4 onto Beaver Creek Road. BC Parks describes the park as an amalgamation of Stamp Falls and Money’s Pool. A 0.5 km trail from the day-use parking area reaches the fish ladder and waterfall; the southern park area has about 2 km of connected trails, while the 7.5 km Sayachlas t’a saa’nim trail is one-way and has access at both ends. Visitors can view spawning salmon from designated viewpoints; the runs begin in August and continue through late fall. Fishing is allowed subject to closures, including a closure 200 m above and 500 m below Stamp Falls from June 15 to November 15; check current fishing regulations. Swimming, floating devices and boating are prohibited in the park and above the falls. The park road is the only bicycle route; e-bikes are prohibited on trails. Dogs must be leashed and are excluded from beaches and park buildings. Trail surfaces and riverbanks can be slippery, with strong currents, waterfalls and wildlife hazards. Follow current BC Parks advisories and signs.
