The surrounding forest and falls lie within Carmanah Walbran Park itself, on the island's south-western edge.
Canadian islands range from temperate rainforest on the Pacific coast to Arctic tundra in the north, and this corner of Vancouver Island falls firmly into the wet coastal forest zone. English is the main language, with French in parts of PEI and Nova Scotia, and Inuktitut in Nunavut's islands. Prince Edward Island is linked to the mainland by the Confederation Bridge, and Newfoundland by ferry, though travel here is by road from the island's own towns.
