What To Expect

Start your day with an easy, guided one-hour Icewalk atop secluded Marble Canyon in British Columbia’s Kootenay National Park. Peer down the deep, narrow canyon walls to crystal-clear cascading waters as they make their way to the Pacific Ocean. Enjoy a chance to warm up in our vans as we take a short drive to our next location at Johnston Canyon. Crossing the continental divide back into the province of Alberta, our guides lead you on a second easy one-hour Icewalk in Banff National Park’s most popular hiking attraction at Johnson Canyon, with waters flowing eastward all the way to the Atlantic Ocean. A world of frozen waterfalls and pillars of blue ice awaits 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! Includes professional hiking guide, transportation from Banff, ice cleats, trekking poles and hot chocolate & cookies. Trip Duration: 4.5 hours approx from hotel door to door

It was great to experience 2 totally different canyons. At the busier Johnston Canyon, our wonderful tour guide, Brian, did an excellent job of staggering the timing so we could dodge the other groups to better enjoy the Lower Falls. At Marble Canyon, there were very few other people besides our group. Our family really enjoyed this tour.
Wonderful view and walk

Pablo was an excellent guide. He was friendly and full of information. We were provided everything we needed, and the two canyons were spectacular. Even the weather cooperated, providing the perfect day for this tour.

It was very easy to maneuver the experience. The workers are kind and helpful. Lots to do at the top of the mountain even if you just want to sit and look at the view. We ate at Sky Lounge for lunch and had a beautiful view from our window seat (great for photos as the sun was shining in). They even take your photo on the way back down the mountain (on the gondola) and it’s available for purchase. It’s an absolute must for tourists.
