This is a place we visit every time we come to the island in the summer. The water is crystal clear and awesome for swimming. The current is so gentle, it’s safe even for the little ones. Our teenage boys love cliff jumping and this is a great and safe place to do it.

Definitely stop at the Natural Bridge on your way to Emerald Lake in Yoho National Park it is a very picturesque spot and well worth seeing. Very early October was a great time to visit with no crowds so you can really enjoy this beautiful place ????

If you have limited time, make sure to check out this canyon because it is SPECTACULAR!!! If you're staying in Banff, it's only a half hour northwest off highway 93, from Lake Louise about a half hour southwest. It's only 15 minutes off highway 1/transcontinental. I couldn't believe how beautiful and peaceful it was. I got there about 6:00pm after spending some time checking out the Radium Hot Springs (highly recommend, reasonable price for soaking, only $5.50CAD), Verdant Creek (also highly recommend, water a different color from others, with interesting views of the shale rock), Sinclair Canyon and Paint Pots. The whole area is simply beautiful, but I think Marble Canyon (known as a slot Canyon) is the best!!! When I was there later in the day, the water reminded me of my favorite drink, pure white almond milk????. Simply spectacular!!! One of the neatest things here is to see two different colors of water meeting: the emerald rock flour brought in from glacial water from the Tokumm Creek and that milk white water from the Vermillion River. It's really obvious the white water wins. The white brilliance of the rock makes it obvious why it's called Marble Canyon. Near one of the sets of steps you'll see a chain link fence with a latch on the left to open a gate to go down to the river. I did so, not to swim, which is not a good idea( water quite fast moving, with a lot of boulders to crash into), but to put my hand in it. I put my hand in it three times to smell it. Twice to get any smell off my hands, once to get the true sense of its aroma. I even cleaned out my nose a little to make sure I would get the true smell of it. I was surprised how good the aroma was. . It smelled a little bit like coconut and cinnamon. Really cool????. There are some stones you could put in the water to see just how much like shiny marble the dolomite rock looks like (caused by the swirling water of the river). There are a couple of areas in the canyon where it might be possible to touch both sides at the same time if you could get close enough, but please don't try it. You get a nice view between the Canyon walls on several of the bridges. When you think you're done, please keep going until the waterfalls. There are several waterfalls to be aware of. One of them you may not even see until you turn around to go back after seeing one of them. You won't get a great view of it though, unless you go in winter and are an ice climber. They're marvelous to see????. Make sure to take a seat on the cool red chairs up a hill a little, it's the only place I stopped to do so. You can see Vermillion Peak when looking back over the first bridge over Marble Canyon. It is quite imposing. Mount Whymper is also visible behind the red chairs. I can't forget the fact you can find flowers as well in some areas on the trail not too far from the falls, like near those chairs. In conclusion, due to the serenity, the astounding beauty with so much diversity, simplicity to see the Canyon (an elderly person in decent shape could do it pretty easily, maybe someone with a walker would not be recommended though, there are several flights of steps to navigate) and the lack of crowds here, I would recommend to anyone to visit here. Most people don't even know it's in the area. It's not the largest Canyon by any means in the Rockies, but in my opinion it's the prettiest????. Thanks for reading.

Beginning near the Peace River Coal Mine this route will lead you into an amazing formation of Rock Pinnacles on the Southeastern slopes of Mount Babcock. A little further down the road you’ll find the trail to the magnificent Babcock Falls. Rocky in many places - wear appropriate footwear.
