The lower waterfalls of Johnston Canyon can be photographed from a platform or a small cave.

Hiking

The lower Johnston Falls are very easy to reach, but a completely wet experience. Plan this trip as a "day off" or an easy start before moving on to more challenging destinations, as it really doesn't take much to get there and enjoy some beautiful views.

Hiking

However, you should know that the spot next to Lake Louise is the most visited place. And very easy to walk on, so it's nice that the whole family can come along, but accordingly it goes up in single file on weekends and nice days!
