What to expect

Trek through Johnston Canyon to a world of frozen waterfalls and pillars of blue ice. During the icewalk you will learn about the formation of the canyon, pick out fossil corals in the rocks, and photograph the incredible pillars of ice as you walk through the canyon bottom and over suspended catwalks. Your professional guide leads you past waterfalls frozen in mid-stream, and through a short tunnel for a close up view of the Lower Falls! The grand finale is the incredible "Cathedral of Ice" at the Upper Falls. It's the perfect destination for a break and a chance to see ice climbers in action. Guide, transport and ice cleats included.

The Johnston Canyon Icewalk's beauty and accessibility makes it a must for your list of things to do Banff this winter.
