Johnston Caynon: Accessible Fun for the Whole Family

Banff National Park has no shortage of natural wonders to discover. Always a visitor favourite, Johnston Canyon annually attracts explorers from every corner of the world. Banff Adventures offers you the opportunity to experience this beautiful expanse of landscape with our Icewalk tours.
Catering to small groups (12 and under), both our daytime and evening walks allow you to take in stunning winter scenes and travel through peak wildlife habitat.
Icewalks are a wonderful and accessible option for those looking to experience Banff in a less physically demanding manner. Different walks will take you through the famous upper icefalls, have you explore the cavern by headlamp (complete with your own souvenir headlamp to bring the memories home!), and trek across the Grotto Canyon. All tours require warm ski wear, and nighttime walks are suitable for ages eight and up.
If you’re looking for a little extra adventure, or even more ways to unwind with family in friends, Banff Adventures offers packages featuring our Icewalk options alongside other activities. Pair your canyon expedition with a snowshoe adventure, sleigh ride, or treat yourself to a luxurious soak in the Banff Hot Springs.
Winter is yours to explore, and Banff Adventures is here to make sure you make the most of every experience! For more information on our Icewalks, check out our individual tours. To discover more about our winter packages, including our Icewalk features, please click here.
