About 26 kilometers along the Bow Valley Parkway is the entrance to Johnston Canyon with its two waterfalls.
A trail leads through the canyon, with bridges along the steep cliff walls allowing visitors to get a feel for being in one of these unique canyons. The path continues on some six kilometers on the far side of the canyon, leading up to the Ink Pots, a group of springs.
Two of these are particularly striking because of the bluish-green color of the water. Most visitors just stick to the lower level, while those with more time and energy take on the more strenuous walk to the Ink Pots.
Johnston Canyon is an impressive site in both summer and winter, although it sees very few visitors outside of the summer season
