Johnston Canyon Icewalk
Beskrivelse
Vand kaskader ind i denne smalle canyon i sommervarmen, men om vinteren falder den tordenfuld fast til at skabe naturlige isskulpturer. Johnston Canyon er en af de mest populære attraktioner i Banff National Park og har et netværk af stålkateller, der er indbygget i canyonvæggene, som giver dig mulighed for at gå lige langs denne iskatedral med luftige udsigt til slugten nedenfor. Som du gør, kommer du til at vandre gennem en naturlig hule for at stirre ned på de blomstrende vand i de nedre nedfald. Fortsæt på de imponerende øvre fald - et glitrende istår, der stiger 30 meter over dit hoved. Disse gigantiske ispilstole er turens højdepunkt, og isklatrere kan ofte ses som skalering af de frosne søjler. Denne populære guidede isvandring fører dig forbi de nedre fosser og videre for at se de betagende øvre isfald fra øverste dæk. Du vil også rejse gennem prime wildlife habitat at nå faldet og lære vejledninger til hvordan Johnston Canyon blev dannet.

Excellent trip, guide was on time and took us on the walk pointing out and sharing knowledge and info on the area. Was tricky in parts with a new snowfall but well worth the effort
We had a most wonderful time with Chloe. She was so much fun, telling great stories. The canyon is a must see in any season but we were very pleased that we were able to view the falls in their icy state. Highly recommend and ask for Chloe- she is great!
This was an amazing experience overall. The trail was 98% covered in ice so having crampons provided was not only convenient but necessary. Sophie was an excellent guide and helped to turn a casual walk in the (gorgeous) woods into an informative tour. Even the drive from the pick up spot to the trailhead was packed with great storytelling. We got very lucky with the weather and had a perfectly warm, sunny day in April! Couldn't have asked for a better set of circumstances. Highly recommend this beautiful tour.
The guided tour is the way to go. Our tour guide, Neil Evans was very knowledgeable about the park, the canyons as well as the history of Banff. The views were absolutely stunning. The hike took about 4 hours and has multiple different terrain elevations but nothing too bad. My daughter and I give this tour company and the hike a 10/10. Thanks for having us Discover Banff Tours and thank you to our guide Neil Evans.
Absolutely unforgettable experience at Johnston Canyon in Banff! From the moment we started the trail, it felt like stepping into a postcard. The turquoise water, the sound of rushing waterfalls, and the stunning canyon walls made every step worth it. The walk itself was easy to follow and incredibly scenic, with well-maintained pathways and breathtaking views at every turn. Reaching the Lower and Upper Falls was the highlight—each one more beautiful than the last. The fresh mountain air and peaceful atmosphere made it such a refreshing escape from everyday life. If you’re visiting Banff, this is a must-do. Whether you’re going for a relaxing walk or chasing views, Johnston Canyon delivers pure magic. I’d go back in a heartbeat!
Superb tour with amazing views and lots of time to explore. It is not rushed. Lot of free time and guided knowledge sharing with other people. Very friendly people and staff.
This was a blast! I'm not normally one for guided tours but our tour with Neil was great. He had a ton of info about the canyon and did a great job of telling us about the geography of the area. He also gave us a very clutch suggestion about when/where to ski which really helped us plan the rest of our vacation in Banff. Highly recommend doing a tour with this group, they truly do set up everything and make everything very easy.
So glad to hear Neil turned your trip into a canyon-sized win! His local tips are gold, especially for making the most of Banff. Thanks for the recommendation and for trusting us with your adventure!
Georgia was great with a blend of humor, facts, stories…and even geology! She even enticed us with treats. Thanks Georgia!
The hike was not overly strenuous. You definitely need ice cleats. The views are worth every step. Georgia was our guide and she was fabulous! The hot chocolate and cookies she served when we got to the turnaround were such a nice treat. We have only positive things to say about this experience. Georgia was even kind enough to drop us off at our hotel when we got back to town.
We really enjoyed the hike to the falls and the scenery was beautiful. Georgia was a fantastic guide, she was so knowledgeable and made the drive and hike so interesting and fun.
Sounds like a perfect blend of fresh air, nature sights and great company! We’re so glad Georgia made the journey both fun and insightful. Thanks for sharing your experience!
