Hiking
The canyon is located about 73 kilometers behind Lake Louise in the direction of Jasper, directly on the Icefield Parkway. There is a small parking lot right on the road. Fortunately, the canyon is not very crowded. The one-kilometer hiking trail directly to the canyon is a bit steep, but manageable. Sturdy shoes are recommended, though. A little gem.

Hiking
Easily accessible from the Icefield Parkway. Parking is available. Located about 300 m downhill, the water flows through the canyon at an infernal speed.
