Travel onwards to Albas Falls in Seymour Arm. Be sure to make the quick stop at St.Ives Falls; it is marked with a small wooden sign. Albas Falls is one of the best in the Shuswap region and is worth the adventure. To get to Albas Falls, visitors must travel 35km on a gravel and sometimes bumpy forest service road (FSR). Experience driving on FSR roads is recommended in British Columbia.
