Duration: 04:00 hours


Description

Two canyons, two national parks in two provinces with waters reaching two different oceans - all in one tour! Transportation from Banff, Hot Chocolate and Cookies provided.
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.
