Was here in June 2022. The view took my breath away. Inspiring. Thought provoking. That such beauty could one day be destroyed by the way we live.

Throughout my Banff tour I have seen this river. When we visited Cascade Garden in Banff downtown, we saw this river. Again in the way of Johnston Canyon I came across this river. In the month of August this river looks pretty and what a color. Great view. Want to do canoeing though next time.

We were heading to Lake Louise and saw this Lake from the Parkway. The color was quite amazing so we made a few stops along the way. We were thoroughly enjoying the Canadian Rockies as they are magnificent. The peaks of Mt. Rundle and Mt. Cascade, part of the Canadian Rocky Mountains, dominate its skyline.

Every year we float down the Bow River- multiple times! We just love it. It’s so beautiful and peaceful and the wild life we get to see along the way is incredible. Highly recommended taking an afternoon to see the city from a different view.
