Description: The Johnston Canyon area is located between Banff and Lake Louise along the Trans Canada Highway. It is an extremely popular destination given its ease of access and gorgeous waterfalls. Arriving a little before sunrise reveals the waterfalls in a natural, soft light. There are actually a number of falls along the trail in this canyon, all of them with the blue glacial melt water and surround lush green flora inside the canyon. The middle falls is the widest of them, with a single cascade dropping into a sapphire pool underneath a cave like overhang before turning 90 degrees and heading further downstream.
