Winter Hike in Johnston Canyon Icewalk® in Small Group

● Please be at the meeting point 20 minutes before the departure time of the tour. It is very important in this case to take note that it is the passenger's sole obligation and responsibility to contact the local contact number one day before the service to confirm the exact pick-up point and time
● The only pick-up point included is from 138 Banff Ave - Public bus parking located behind the Mount Royal Hotel
● Tours require a minimum of 4 guest to operate, please call the day prior to confirm the tour
● The minimum age is 8 years. All children aged 15 years and under must be accompanied by their parent or legal guardian
● All adults must sign a waiver, which will be sent through upon booking. A waiver must also be completed by the parent or legal guardian of any child under the age of 18 years
● Please bring your photo ID for each adult (18+) for waiver verification
● We cancel our tour at around -27 degrees Celsius or -22 Fahrenheit, and would offer to reschedule or refund your tour if this occured
● This tour does not walk on the ice (as it is fragile, dangerous and you can punch through to the icy flowing water). You will be following the trail and steel catwalks that are built into the canyon wall and allow a spectacular view down the canyon walls to the ice and river below
● The Johnston Canyon Icewalk in winter is considered a moderate to intermediate hike. We recommend a moderate fitness level so you can fully enjoy the tour
● We do take the tour at a relaxed pace, although there is some steep areas and elevation gains throughout the 5.4km (3.4 mile) hike. The main elevation gain is done in short climbs (in some cases steep enough for steps), rather than being dispersed over the entire distance
● We provide ice cleats that will be attached to your boots that will prevent you from slipping on the ice, and we have hiking poles for extra stability if you would like to use them as well
● Please be prepared for the mountain weather, it changes quickly and our winter tours run in anything from -27C (-17F) to +10C (+50F). Wind chill can change the temperature dramatically and you will be outside for the majority of your tour
● To ensure that you enjoy the tour, please wear/bring: thermals/base layers/long johns; Snow pants are recommended for this tour and are mandatory if it is below -16C (3F). Otherwise on warmer days, jeans/regular pants over long johns are okay; a warm sweater; a warm jacket. Snow pants and Ski jackets can be rented from stores in Banff; a hat and mitts; a neck warmer or scarf; sturdy, warm, ideally waterproof shoes; a water bottle
● Please note that safety is our first priority. If the guide thinks your attire or footwear isn’t appropriate and compromises your safety on the tour, you may not be able to participate
● Tips are not expected, but are certainly appreciated. If you think your guide did a wonderful job and would like to indicate that with a tip, it will be graciously accepted
