Weeping Wall

4
(1)
The Weeping Wall is a unique seasonal waterfall cascading down a steep cliff along the Icefields Parkway in Jasper National Park, Alberta, Canada. During warmer months, melting snow and ice create delicate streams that appear to “weep” down the rock face. In winter, the flowing water freezes into dramatic blue ice formations, attracting ice climbers and photographers from around the world. The constantly changing appearance of the cliff makes the Weeping Wall a fascinating natural feature in every season. For travelers, the Weeping Wall offers a quick yet memorable roadside stop showcasing the dynamic beauty of water, ice, and mountain geology in the Canadian Rockies.
