Johnston Canyon Resort
Vacation Rental

Johnston Canyon was named after a prospector who struck gold while panning in the creek. The Lower Falls are arguably the most famous in Banff National Park. The rushing water of the creek and the interesting rock formations along the recently upgraded hiking trail offer an exhilarating experience for the avid hiker or relaxing ambiance for a leisurely stroll.

Cozy fireplaces and warm ambience

Then venture on to the breath-taking Upper Falls or the natural mineral springs at the Ink Pots. The beauty, serenity and splendor of this wilderness retreat continues to inspire many photographers, nature lovers, bird watchers and sightseers. All this is yours as you step out the front door of impressive Banff cabins.

Some cabins have a kitchen

As you journey up the Canyon, the rugged wilderness is tamed by the well-used path and you are invited onward. Glimpses of wildlife can be seen along the trail - either in body or evidenced by tree markings. You can use your imagination to visual a bear scampering up that tree after being startled, or the elk marking its territory with its majestic rack.

Some offer old-world charm
