Itinerary description
|
Easy round trip route to contemplate the recesses and waterfalls that form in the Maligne Canyon, impressive the force with which the water descends.
The first 4 bridges that cross the canyon are found relatively quickly, for the other two it takes a little longer (especially until the sixth), which can also be accessed by car outside the canyon.
The most interesting thing about Maligne Canyon, in addition to its innate beauty, is that in many places the water rises directly from inside the mountain, coming through underground galleries from Medicine Lake, about 20 km upstream.
