Getting there: Follow Hwy 23 south of Revelstoke and turn left on Clough Road. Drive to the bottom of the hill and turn right onto Begbie Road. Follow the signs to the start of the Begbie Falls Forest Service Road. There is a trailhead 300m down the road on the right and a second trailhead approximately 2km further down the FSR, at the top of the trail leading down to the falls. The campground is between the two trailheads. The Begbie Bluffs trailhead can be reached by staying on Hwy 23 south and driving past the Mt McPherson Ski Trail parking lot approximately 1 km.
