Johnston Canyon強斯頓峽谷是Banff National Park的熱門景點,乃弓河支流Johnston Creek切割蝕形成,深度約30公尺,步道懸空架設在峽谷山壁上,坡度略有起伏但平坦好行,出發前已做好功課,Lower Falls算是大眾型的初級路線,沒有階梯,故輪椅可行進
到達Johnston Canyon小客車停車場,往裡面走去,會經過一座小橋到Johnston Canyon的Café Shop,是整段Trail的起點,到Upper Falls約2.6km(單程約1小時),Lower Falls位於往Upper Falls的途中約1.1公里處(單程30分鐘)。
Johnston Canyon最深的地方約30公尺,沿途走在Catwalk上,處處可見那湍急的Johnston Creek以及成群的小瀑布,更能體會出峽谷的深邃。
走在Johnston Canyon的Trail上,起初是一片深林,走著走著還是隨處可聽見那潺潺的流水聲
藍綠色溪水清淯見底
時有急湍、時為平灘、時為小瀑
兩岸石灰岩壁歷經長年侵蝕,地貎景觀獨特
大自然的鬼斧神工,就在這狹小的峽谷中,居然也能有此番美景
繼續往上走,視野豁然開朗,展現大片粗獷峭壁
上瀑布河谷落差交疊成一層層小瀑布
以上美景,是由特派員BD拍攝,因為整個路徑已被初雪覆蓋,小徑有坡度起伏,走路的人都會怕滑了,實無法再協助控制輪椅,所以Holly只好留在出發點,無緣吸收那天地靈氣
只是,特派員一出任務就被整個美景吸引住,完全忘了時間,也忘了老婆在冰天雪地中等候著,這一去就直達Upper Falls消失了二小時,比他後來進去的人都回程了,還沒見到人影,老婆除了又冷又凍外,心中實在超擔心不懂英文的人迷路在峽谷中,眼看太陽要下山了,開始要準備去求救了,不稱職特派員才現身,幸好平安歸來!這一筆一定要記錄下來,不時拿出來碎念一下,才能記取教訓!
Johnston Canyon, Lower Falls
Johnston Canyon Trail to Lower Falls is a 4.8 kilometer heavily trafficked out and back trail located near Lake Louise, Alberta, Canada that features a waterfall. The trail is good for all skill levels and is primarily used for hiking, walking, and nature trips. Dogs are also able to use this trail but must be kept on leash.
It is most of the way to the lower falls – however there are catwalks that will only accommodate the width of the wheelchair so it is highly advisable to do this before 8 am on a summer day or after 7 pm before or after the crowds. This round trip will take you approximately 45 minutes and you will experience some beautiful vistas.
